El Dorado 12-Year

When compared to its fifteen and twenty-five year counterparts this rum is truly astounding. Very sweet, and with a richness usually reserved for more expensive drinks this has quickly become one of my personal favourites. That being said I would not recommend this be mixed with anything to avoid overloading the already robust character.

This is hands down my favorite rum. Very easy to drink, great depth, and everyone I share this with immediately becomes a fan.

Nice sweet sipping rum but not so sweet like Diplomatico RE.

One of my favs - complex and rich in all aspects with a smooth taste. Very pleasant to drink.

δεν είναι απο τα αγαπημένα μου αλλά το οτι είναι ένα γνήσιο ρούμι θα το πώ.έχει όλα τα στοιχεία που πρέπει να έχει(χρώμα αρωμα γεύση) απλά μου βγάζει λίγο παραπανω αλκόλ απο οτι ήθελα

I am a big fan of the Molasses / Caramel type flavoring in a Rum. Not too sweet, but the flavors are there. This Rum doesn't disappoint on those flavor notes! This one is definitely in my rotation.

Great taste, RAW gold color with a hint off Pirates ;)

A very inexpensive, good sipping rum. Great with coke as well.

i live in a place where restaurants rarely have great rum selections. I was surprised to find a 12 year old El Dorado. With so many positive reviews I looked forward to trying it. This one was a major disappointment to me. The taste was heavy on the Carmel. Sweet but not too sweet and a hint of vanallia But the overwhelming characteristic is the medicinal smell and taste. It smells and tastes like NyQuil - and that's being polite. After a couple it becomes more drinkable but I cannot recommend this rum. It says 12 year old run but it has the smoothness of 12 hour hootch.

Great tasting, complex sipping rum. If I can't afford a bottle of El Dorado 15, I'll go for an ED12 any day. Slightly less sweet to me than Diplomatico Reserva which I also like.
