Beautiful!

Sweet, caramel, tingles nicely on the tongue.

A lot smoother than expected. No burn. Marked down due to the price, although very nice I think there are other rums that done close to this.

Haven’t tried to 15yr yet.

As expected, full of flavor. Dark in appearance. Smells of banana, vanilla, brown sugar. Tastes of oak, spice, fruit.

An excellent rum with lots of flavour and very smooth going down. In the top 5% of all rums.

This rum was given to me for Christmas by one of my rum buddies. I was shocked when I first tasted it. It has a harsh old wood taste like Scotch. I hate Scotch! Compared to the Zacapa XO I would give this a 6 as it is not smooth for my taste. However, in all fairness, I had some Scotch drinking friends try it and they loved it and would give it a "9". However, they would also prefer my Zacapa XO. It could be the difference between being a Scotch or Cognac drinker. Let the buyer be aware.

Guyana makes one of the best rums in the world, El Dorado is a great ambassador and their 21 years old rum is superb! Oak, leather and rip bananas hints with caramel.

I drank this like 3 years ago and back than I was a real rum noobie (well, kinda still is). I haven't drank too many different rums back than, just really loved the 12 and 15 years old El Dorados, so naturally I wanted to try the 21 year old as well. What I can remember it was a bit disappointing after the two younger ones, it felt more edgier, not that smooth and maybe just too heavy sort so say. Now, after I tried at least a wider palette of different rums I maybe want to go back to this one and give another try, causer I believe this is a more complex rum that you need some maturity to really enjoy.

A little bit subdued nose, but aroma's of honey, vanilla toast and brown sugar can be found.
A little bit too alcoholic in the mouth with an aroma that makes me think of cognac. Also aroma's of toast, caramel, chocolate and a smoky touch with a very long finish.
A very well balanced rum

My expectation was very high and I must admit that I was disappointed ... A smooth whiskey would have done the same for me and I don't like whiskey! It is much more acid than the 15 yo. So the 15 yo will remain my favorite El Dorado.

After tasting and got my mind blown by El Dorado 15 years, i tried this one. It is a littlbe bit sweet for my taste, but excellent rum in general for it's class. For sure you have to try it at least once!!

I'm not sure who's saying this stuff is smooth, it's far from it. I honestly rate this as one of the bottom rums I've ever tasted and will not be picking up another bottle again unless its for someone I don't like.
