Doorly's 14-Year

Doorly's 12 year is one of my favourite rums and i was hoping this would be as good or even better. I was not disappointed! This actually tastes even slightly better than the 12 year and still has a wonderful finish that seems to last throughout. Overall this is a fantastic rum and i look forward to buying a bottle.

This rum is for true men, not a princesses. Its 48% strong, dry, very woody character but also very smooth. In taste also notes of spice, dark chocolate and orage. Very long end because of no added sugar

Lighter aroma. Taste is complex, starting with wood ending with fruity, citrus tones. Aftertaste is longer and pleasant.

Caribbean rum at its finest .RL seale you rock my world , a depth on the nose of oak and cask rum . Flavours on sipping starting with a light caramel then going to full oak caks taste ... If I could fill a bar with rum this certainly has to be there

voní, sladší začátek, dřevo na konec, štípe, lihovější než XO

Just the way I like it, strong yet smooth with a fruitful and sweet sip.

Utterly brilliant.

The nose has wonderful full oak on it, coupled with spices and a hint of cedar. I do like what American oak gives to a rum.

The thing that struck me most was how unctuous the rum was in the mouth. It filled it with velvety smooth rum, that seems so much thicker and more viscous than the 12yo. Again the American oak shines through, which is what I really like in a rum.

The 48% is smooth as, and a really well judged bottling strength.

I did decide to compare with the 12yo. Straight after the 14yo it is unsurprisingly a disappointment. Still nice, and at 40% is an easy drinker, but the 14yo is so much more. What I would like to try is the 12yo at 48%. I think 40% does it an injustice.

wow. this is really a very good rum. lovely blood orange after taste (not bitter or valencia orange for me). some burnt caramel and very dark chocolate. not sweetened that i can detect. i am buying this and trying the 12 and XO as well. this is really something.

I love the XO and 12yr and was looking forward to this one hitting the uk. Was left a bit underwhelmed, so much so that when I tried it at a tasting I didn’t even buy a bottle with the 10% discount on offer. For the money as far as FourSquare goes the Zinfandel cask has been the best bang for buck.
