Surprisingly good rum, tasty with some fruit aftertaste.

A perfectly balanced 12y rum witch class, aroma and sweetness all in harmonic proportions. A truly great choice and worth every penny!

one of many bottles i had in December last year and propably one of the best (well Barcelo imperial was there obviously). smell and taste seemed to me as mixture of pampero aniversario (the jam flavour) and flor de cana 12 (the chocolate flavour). Obviously more balanced and more complexed than pampero and flor 12. loved it and will buy it soon again.

Len, mild med mycket fruktsmak. Den fรถrsta El Dorado jag testat. lRekommenderas!
I love this rum neat. It is really smooth and doesn't have strong alcohol taste.

One of the first rum I've tasted. Liked it a lot then and I like it a lot still. Really nice sipping rum with a great taste. It is also really good in a cuba libre (sacrilege I know, but it was part of a tasting experiment). Haven't tried the siblings yet, but looking forward to it.
First I liked it, but then my dislike of anything sweet alcohol got over, bottle is still almost full.
But I did't want to give up, so I purchased 21 yo
I just like it...sweet, dark, almost viscous. I'm not a big rum "taster" but I like the smoothness and silky note that this rum has on my palate.

I do like sweet rums, and this one is like a spicy brown sugar rum happiness. Itโs woodsy with some oak. Relatively heavy weight - not syrup but in that direction. Short slightly sour finish isnโt the best but Ok. Not overly complex but easy sipper. Would be great for someone just getting started on rum.
