had this rum recently
Dos Maderas PX 5 + 5 rum is made from a combination of rums from Barbados and Guyana. It is unique becuase of its triple ageding process where for 5 initial years the rum is aged in the Carribean in oak casks. Next PX 5 + 5 is aged in Spain for 5 years in sherry casks, and lastly for 2 more years in even older sherry casks.
The Dos Maderas family of rums are produced by Bodegas Williams & Humbert, which is a well known Spanish winery founded by Sir Alexander Williams in the late 1800s. The region of Spain where the winery is located has a climate perfectly suited for wine and is known as Europe's wine cellar.

One of my favourites. Delivers with an enticing smell on the nose with an initial sweet taste followed by the taste vanilla, mollasses and ending with sherry. All very smoothly. Definately worth a try.

Balanced rum that is on low side of sweetness with pleasant after tones of almonds.

I've tried their luxus in a mini bottle and was blown away, this PX5+5, which is their budget offering, is almost as good. Incredibly smooth, it's just really easy to enjoy, straight or mixed. Absolute steal at β¬35!

A fantastic great rum. Smooth. Sweet. Strong. All combined in one bottle. After tasting I really needed to buy the magnum edition. You will not be dissapointed with this rum!

Taking into consideration that it is barely aged 5 years in Caribeans... Then 5 years en mi casa EspaΓ±a.... I must say it's awesome. Full of chocolate and cherry. Multidimenisional, smooth... Nice sipper. Good value for good money!

If you prefer naked, honest rums, barrel-aged and typical : don't read further.
If you are open for experiments, try this PX 5+5. It's really sweet and fruity and I couldn't stop to drink. Sweetness comes from Marzipan and I love Marzipan. Unfortunately I can't define the fruits. I cannot really identify sherry notes or other. Let's leave it as a sweet fruit salad. Unfortunately with a really short finish. So drink a lot that the finish never ends.
Price : I bought 2 bottles for 30 Euros each and that is absolute okay.
Rate : just a 7 because it's really good drinkable but it's only a half rum and not so good as Plantation XO that I gave an 8.
Update on 04/13/23 :
minus 1 point for too much sugar and less alcohol than labeled

Suggested by the bartender James at the JW Marriott, Marco Island. Great entry level rum with a bourbon flair. Very smooth and silky with an easy finish. Perfect match with a Bolivar Coronas cigar.
Thanks James!! Cw
