El Dorado Special Reserve 15-Year

YU
had this rum recently

Guyana | Aged | 43% ABV

El Dorado Special Reserve 15-Year rum is crafted from 15 to 25 year old rums that are then blended and married together in bourbon oak casks. Prior to blending the original batches are distilled using 4 unique stills - the Enmore and Diamond Coffey stills, the Port Mourant double wooden pot still, and the Versailles single wooden pot still.

The bottle of El Dorado Special Reserve 15-year was inspired by the the old hand-blown flasks used by sugar planters on the banks of the Demerara river.

Lots of complexity... sweet front and enjoyable bourbon cask notes

If i remember right 12 is much more in-your-face demerara taste, while this one is richer, more complex and smoother, but more alcoholy. When it comes to enjoyment factor its pretty much the same. One of very few rums ill drink on the rocks, as i usually have my rums neat.

This is one of the driest rums that I have had but it is really good. It has little heat and is quite smooth. This is a rum worthy of being sipped. If you choose to taste/pair it with chocolate, you may need to go with milk chocolate. It is more dry than the Real McCoy but less so than Zacapa XO. At around $50 a bottle, it is worth the money IF you like dry rums or just rum in general but if you prefer sweet rum, this may be one that "won't impress." Personally, I prefer sweet rums but I am absolutely a fan of all good rum and make no mistake, this is good rum! I highly recommend it for any connoisseur that may have missed it. In short...damn good stuff!

One of my favorites for drinking after a long day at work. Full body, smooth and sweet just enough.

My first El Dorado, a nice compromise between dry & sweet. Great neat or over ice.

I have always loved the 21 year old and gave the 15 a try. Super happy, complex flavour, another great El Dorado!!!

I love this rum. It's flavors are a direct improvement (though minor) over the 12-year, without imparting too strong of a aging barrel flavor. I can't place this rum over the 12-year, as the $20 price point increase does not reflect the marginal increase in flavor. Still, this rum is well worth a try.

A very solid sipping rum, another staple in my cabinet. I smell chocolate, toffee and vanilla with hints of tobacco.

The rum is rich in the mouth but not very complex. It has a satisfying sweetness that seems to intensify with a dash of ice. A very solid rum and recommended.
