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.

This Dos Maderas rum is a very strong oak tasting rum with strong tobacco notes but also a very sweet side!

just like the 5+3 but 5 years in sherry casks. One of the best buys out there so good
this rum is unusual - aged in PX casks, it's just way sweeter than a rum should be! If you're in the mood for sweet - it goes down a treat though. Very sherry, thick and sweet. I like it.

Decent rum but nothing special. Mostly fruity, with black licorice notes. Mild bitterness on the finish.
SERIOUSLY sweet, never tasted rum so syrupy. Rum flavour beneath sweetness is however really nice, shame it had to be ruined with tons of sugar. Smells very good though. Managed to drink a glass with cigar.
Rest of the bottle probably goes with lots of ice & cola.

Was introduced to this by a rum lover in Antigua. Sweetness from the 5 years in PX sherry barrels married perfectly with toffee caramel notes from the broader aging. Easy drinking, and incredibly satisfying

This rum is great for a nightcap. You feel like you need 1 more drink before sleep? Drink this one. You had a nice dinner and just want to have 1 drink? Drink this one. You were drinking different types of rum and still want to have 1 more? Drink this one.
It is the rum version of a sweet Port. It has a strong tase which I recommend that 1 is enough.

Not as sweet and a lot less harsh than I expected from the dark color. Reminds me of a reserve bourbon more than a rum. Not saying thatโs a bad thing at all.

Neat - very good, strong and smokey. In cocktails can't feel the smoke, just a little bit sweet. Nice rum, tasty

Weich. Karamell weniger stark. Brennt nicht. Angenehm.

Even after 20 minutes in the glass, it still burns going down, i have tasted other rums that have afteraged i portcask, but this one has a very funky taste, i dont like it at all.
