Very nice smooth sipping rum, especially considering its price compared with other aged rums

Really rich, caramel, hazelnut kind a like taste, color really lovely amber, prize was reasonable. This goes great with not so special evenings, with good company and some nice blunts.

On dit souvent qu'il est très compliqué de faire simple, c'est ce que fait ce rhum du Demerara qui est pour moi un standard. Avec un nez très classique (boisé, fruits murs, tabac, caramel...) il est très facile d'abord pour une découverte du monde des rhums (et bien plus riche qu'un diplomatico). En bouche on retrouve les mêmes éléments avec un côté très gras et donc sucré, ce qui constitue son point fort et son point faible à la fois, selon les goûts.
Il est distillé dans les alambics Enmore, Diamond et Port Mourant, joli pédigrée vous en conviendrez !
Le rapport qualité/prix est excellent

Had the 12 year old El Dorado at the Saint House and rum Bar in Tucson Az 2 weeks ago ! Was blown away by this 12 year old Rum ! It's great in a Daiquiri , trust me ?

Den gør absolut ingen fortræd. Den er sød og blød. Rund og rar. Her får man lidt mere at lege med end fx RZ23. Den er dog stadig forholdsvis simpel og man er tilbøjelig til at ville mere. Den er dog altid god at falde tilbage på og så er det utroligt at den er så billig! Jeg foretrækker 15y!

Lækker Rom med lidt bid i. God sødme, dejlig eftersmag.

Some reviews state that sugar was added or artificial sweeteners. Not quite sure how this rum has high alcohol to the nose with a strong bitter burnt taste. I specifically bought this in hopes of finding a "Sweet Rum". No go for me.
