Without so much sugar, this new version really lets the production shine through.
We get more fruit and smoke, plus that lovely dry oaky finish.
Glad that the new GI regulations seem to be improving quality!

this is the new 2020 edition of the el dorado 12 yo with much less sugar added (approx. 6g/lit.) to meet the new EU regulations. and i guess it‘s now better then it was before, it‘s one of my favourite ones and it‘s a no brainer as it‘s quite cheap. really nice and smooth rum

Compared to the previous El Dorado 12 this is phenomenal. I was kind of concerned that with very little added sugar it might have lost what I loved in this fine rum but it's even better. I give this a solid 8, and in its price range a 10. Pick up a bottle if you haven't tried it.

El Dorado 2020 Edition 12-Year - klasický rum., Suchý jemný ale zatím to chce čas

I've not tried the previous ED12, so I can't compare. The added sugar put me off before, but the prospect of tasting something of DDLs unique stills really intrigued me, now most of the added sugar is no longer there.
Smell and taste is layers of sugar, but whereas Doorlys 12 is soft brown sugar, this is something darker and richer, and maybe slightly dirty. There's also a subtle backdrop of wood, and something smoky, maybe charred wood or burnt sugar.
The finish is where the dry, astringent wood comes to the fore, and really lingers, along with a hint of dried fruit.
The overall impression is more varied than the Doorlys, and much less sweet. It's well integrated, and always interesting, without being complex. At this price point, I'd say it's the best bang for buck I've yet come across.

It's brilliant to see El Dorado abandoning the sugar dosing . This is apparently very low when tested with hydrometer...

More complexity and definitely a better sipper than the previous 12 year expression.
Caramel and toffee notes are present.
