Doorly's ABV43 12-Year

The Doorly's 12 years shows us a beautiful light brown/golden color presented in a nice bottle.
Once in mounth, you discover mainly pastry aromas and vanilla.
Not really in my range of rum.

Honiggelbes Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase, ahh.. Barbados, herrlicher Duft nach tropischen Früchten, zarter Vanille und leichtem Karamell.
Im Gaumen ergiessen sich die Aromen geschmeidig über die Zunge, helle reife Früchte, heller Tabak, helle Vanille, helles Karamell, einfach nur lecker.
Im Abgang schwingt das Ganze aber nur sehr kurz mit.
Ein ehrlicher Rum für Einsteiger und Geniesser.

Honey yellow amber in the glass.
In the nose, ahh .. Barbados, wonderful scent of tropical fruits, delicate vanilla and light caramel.
On the palate, the flavors pour smoothly over the tongue, bright ripe fruit, light tobacco, light vanilla, light caramel, just delicious.
In the finish, the aromas swinging very briefly with.
An honest rum for beginners and connoisseurs.

There's a blend of spice, sweetness and cask in the aroma. The taste follows suite with a rich taste of caramel, spice and dry nutmeg, but finishes on a bitter dry whiskey note. Would be a pleasure for whiskey lovers.

Nice rum, especially considering price paid. Not too sweet, vanilla and wood flavors. Can't give it an 8 because the finish is somewhat short and it lacks a bit character.

you canot go wrong with this one ... less sweet but still smooth

Doorly’s 12 je tradičně doprovázena papouškem na etiketě, v případě dvanáctky se jedná o Ara Škraboškového, který je ve volné přírodě vyhynulý, a výrobce nám tím může napovídat, že tento rum bude také unikátní. Jedná se o destilát z melasy, směs kolonové a kotlíkové destilace, který je stařený výhradně na Barbadosu po dobu minimálně 12 let. 90% směsi Doorly’s 12 tvoří rum, který zrál v sudech po Kentucky burbonu a zbylých 10 % po Madeira víně a jak je zvykem pro Foursquare palírnu, produkt neobsahuje žádná dochucovadla ani aromatizanty.

I like this rum alot. It is smooth, while not overly oaky. Starts like other Doorly's offerings, aroma of vanilla, perhaps hint of stone fruit. Flavor is smooth, very little burn neat, similar to aroma vanilla, perhaps some caramel. Makes a good rum & coke, perhaps a bit too smooth for mixing. Usually I like the rum and coke with a more assertive rum. Doorly's is probably too cultured for that role.

Sweet but just shy of too sweet. Can be a little rough and burning. Can be simple or oaky and complex. Depends on the sip. Overall very worth a try but not the best.

Found this at Total Wine for under $25. Really great choice. Smooth, caramel, not too sweet. Not usually fond of Barbados rums, but this one is really exceptional.

Nice, slightly aromatic fairly light sipping rum.

Light slightly yellow color, pretty, delicate nose...very delicate. Well balanced mouth feel, with a touch of sweetness and evolves into banana and spice. Long rich finish. This is a nice well made rum, which I could happily drink quite a lot of.
