Cuba Libre El Dorado 15-Year

I was all set to love the 21 year but the 15 sucked me in.

First time with this rum. Great over ice. Nice finish. Very smooth

Delicious nose. Vanilla and banana taste. Smooth, really good sweetness and no burn. Excellent neat

My new favorite rum. Had it on the rocks at Lone Wolf in Chicago for $14.

I tried the El Dorado 15 and found it to be a very good rum, but just short of the 12 year variety. The scent of fruit and wood is very present from The first opening of The cork.

Very good rum, but I still prefer the 12-year-old version. This one is a little drier than that one.

Kanske bäst. Jättegod. 43%, en skvätt vatten? Bäst av 12, 15, 21?

Ještě nedávno jsem považoval Diplomatico Reservu Exclusivu za "základ", díky kterému lze porovnávat vše ostatní, nicméně bylo překonáno. Ve srovnání není tak sladké, pro některé až přeslazené, veškeré chutě hezky vystupují, stejně jako vůně. Alkohol není téměř vůbec cítit a jak nadpis napovídá, lze tento rum považovat za nutnost :)

Now this rum has a pretty deep and complex body. In the nose i got a lot of ethanol, but when I sip it there is no strong taste of alcohol at all. There is some sugar together with lots of different tastes like wood, caramel, some fruits... you have to try this one.

Altogether it is a pretty good rum, but I definitely prefer a Centenario 30yo, Opthimus, QRM or UNHIQ, which are of course a lot more expensive.

Pleasant on the nose and a delightful sweet finish.
