Okay, there is a lot of sugar added here as others have remarked. I still like this rum as it is clearly aged nearly as long as the age statement indicates. You can't fake the layers of flavor and subtle complexities that are apparent. The only question I have is, why sweeten it up and make it only appealing to rum drinkers? Just give it to the world sweet and show them why you're one of the best El Dorado.

De la douceur, c'est le mot pour définir ce rhum! J'ai adoré. Légèrement sucré. Vraiment sur le fruit, la finesse de ce rhum m'a laissé séduit!

Nicht mein Geschmack da ich lieber etwas milderen Rum bevorzuge. Der erste Eindruck ist recht intensiv. Einen deutlichen Unterschied kann man im Vergleich mit dem 21 Jahre alten El Dorado deutlich feststellen. Nicht meine erste Wahl, kommt nicht in mein Regal.

Kan rigtig godt lide den. Personligt ville jeg offer lidt mere og købe 15 års modellen

This rum is very smoothe, and interestingly complex. It is an incredible value for such a great sipping rum.

Som ved 15-års udgaven indeholder denne en god sødme, dog med mindre kompleksitet. - en rigtig fin, god til prisen must rom på hylden.

Right now this is probably my favorite rum. I'm terrible at describing the flavors but this one has the perfect combination for me. Pour it over an ice cube or two and you have the perfect sipping rum.
Whenever someone wants to try a rum from my stash I offer this up and so far everyone has enjoyed it.

Voici un rhum, à base de mélasse, très suave et parfumé.

Premières impressions, au nez, c'est doux et sucré, sur le miel. En bouche, il est rond et riche. La finale se fait tout en douceur.

Je le conseille pour les amateurs de mélasse :)

Bought at the German/Danish bordershop for roughly 30 euros...complex and a very good sipper. Chose this before the 15 year old as many consider this to be a better rum regarding its price
