El Dorado Special Reserve 15-Year rum

El Dorado Special Reserve 15-Year

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.

Good nose, dark colour.
A very flavourful rum. Molasses, oak and lime. Quite sweet.
A little overbearing but very agreeable.

Great rum! Deep list of flavors that cross your palate but leave you with a lasting tobacco and dates. Not overly sweet, judt enough to satisfy your cravings. Dont skip this one!

This as a rum by which I ask others to judge, dark but sweet, also my first offered when someone asks for a rum straight up at home.

Nice taste of brown sugar, some fruit, a hint of vanilla. A bit sweet (just the way I like it). To me is a little step below the Zacapa Solera 23, but a worthy competitor. Nice for sipping or mixed (although a bit pricey for mixing).

Dieser Rum isr was besonderes. Mir persönlich etwas zu scharf, aber trotzdem bei vielen Gästen sehr beliebt.

I know the 12, the 15 (this one) and the 21 year editions. And i have to say, the 15 years edit is an great sipper...always. For those who like smooth and round rums, you should give the 21 edit a try. But if you prefer a little bit more character the 15 years edit should be your choice.

This El Dorado is the cause for me being interested in rum in the first place. Really enjoyable straight up and definitely one I'd recommend to and serve people new to rum.

I do think it tastes similar to the 12-year version and if you're short on money you might as well try the 12-year instead.

Le nez est de bonne intensité, sur des notes de bois, de mélasse, de caramel, des épices douces rappelant la cannelle, le girofle et la muscade, joli côté balsamique, puis d'abricots macérés qui transcende l'alcool. Très bel équilibre olfactif
La bouche est plutôt puissante sans être brûlante, de bonne allonge, plutôt sucrée mais en équilibre, qui perdure sur des notes épicées, fruitées et balsamiques.
À déguster lentement, straight et en toute occasion.

I really like this rum for the simple fact it has the balance, body and complexity I'm after without being overpowered by the sweetness. This and rumbullion (which I'm yet to try) are next on my purchase list. Prefer it to the 12 year. Which is lighter and sweeter

Tobacco, Melasse and Spices all impressions mixed together in a happy blend! This is a very good rum, because of the low price tag this gets an 8 easy!
