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.

the 12 is tasty but this is much smoother. Enjoyed sipping with whiskey stones. Slight aromas of stone fruits and burnt sugars. Alcohol warming lingers and finishes rather sweet.

Great rum.Very nice aromas of caramel and vanilla.
Best value.

Sweet, fruity and sugary. Dried figs and dates, sultana's, vanilla extract, brown sugar, loads of cinnamon, allspice, mild wood notes. The finish has a treaclish quality to it with sticky caramel and some more pronounced slightly bitter wood notes. It's all very "smooth" though. I'm normally not a fan of these engineered type of rums, but this is dangerously drinkable.

Best rum I have ever had! Tasted great on the rocks. Better than most high dollar bourbons. A stable for your collection

Complex. Maybe too sugary and old to my taste but still a great rum.

Its a slightly more oak tasting rum than the 12, I prefer the 12 for the price difference

This rum is the first one I judge other rums against. I consider this a truly classic offering, and one of the best starting points for getting into the world of "good" rum. Even more so than a similar offering, like the 18 year Flor De Cana (which is smoother but has less character than this IMO). Skip the 12 year and go straight for this imo, the price difference isn't much but the taste here is notably better.

I don’t drink a lot of rum straight, I’m more of a rum and Coke guy, but I tried this neat and then with some ice and I could have it either way. No harsh burn, really I wouldn’t even say it warms the throat. Just a good, smooth rum that isn’t over powering one way or the other.

tout dépends a quel prix vous payez cette bouteille...
Pour 40€ ok ça sera un bon rhum dans la game des rhums facile à boire.

This a tasty one, but butter in cocktails I think than on its own. But those would be some higher end drinks, not a rum & coke for this one. Nice flavours and aftertaste.
