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.

Había leído mucho de este ron y tenía muchas expectativas, sin embargo no encontré algo en particular. Es buen ron muy similar al Zacapa de sabor.

Light nose, so smooth going down. Nice flavor, well done!

The mixture smells good, tastes sticky, doesn't give pleasure .,.,.,. Аромат быстро разносится вокруг: бисквит, апельсин, бочка, хлебная корка, пробивается резкость. Вкус резкий и сладкий как тёмный квас или напиток Байкал, подкопчёный, маслянистый, тяжёлый, лакричный. Раздражает рот, появляется приторность, голову ненадолго сдавливает. Настроение не поднимает совсем. Читал, что в него смешивают ром с разных производств. Догадываюсь, что в него добавлен сахар для сглаживания неровностей. Посредственный получается ром, несмотря на яркий аромат и выдержку в 15 лет. Повторно бутылку не куплю, но в баре одну рюмку возможно.

Sweet but like a nice desert rather than cloying. Favorite of the range

Not as smooth or sweet as the 12 year. Nose has a strong acetone scent. Strong citrus notes and smooth on the tongue.

Nose: Caramel, brown sugar, light pepperiness, milk chocolate,

Palate: Caramel, Earl grey tea, milk chocolate, tannin bitterness, very oaky, oak vanillin, less sweetness than the ED12 but still definitely sugared, but not to it's detriment.

Finish: Tannins, vanillin, oak and light white pepper spice, leather also emerges, turns to slightly watery in the end.

Disappointing, not very flavourful, quite light, almost more light than ED12 which is disappointing but less sweet which is a good thing.

Delicious rum with fruity alcohol aroma. Taste of dried fruit with vanilla at the end. Like that one!

Excellent "gateway rum" for those who only know Don Plomatico and other shitty-sweety brands. It is very sweet but also very aromatic.

Reminds me of a perfect Tiramitsu. I just dream of this instead of amaretto in a tiramitsu. Would be such a mise en abyme.

High expectations after reading all reviews. Im more into sweeter/smooth rum.
Quite dominant wood/whisky taste?!

Tried to let it breathe 2h and taste improved

Without doubt great sipper if you like the sweeter ones.
A classic reference rum imo.
