Great sipper on the sweet side, full and deep bodied. Every sip stays in your mouth. Run to the shop if you haven't tried it, a premium rum for very little money.

I would love to taste the same rum with less added sugar.
Was my favorite rum for years but now I just cant stand the sweetness anymore. My new favorite sipping rum in the same price range is the Appleton Estate Extra 12YO.

For this price you can't get a better rum although the step up to the 15 is well worth the extra few quid. Rich molasses and smoothness of a typical el dorado. This has minimal burn, flavor isn't overly complex but holds its own against more expensive rums. This was the first bottle of "proper" sipping rum I tried so might be a touch of nostalgia in this review

By far one of the best rums out therefor the money. Lots of flavours and enjoyable mixed with anything! Has a lot of the flavours of the more aged El Dorado rums at a much better price.

Sødme 5/10
Speciel næse.
Sjov krads kortvarig smag som ikke afrundes eller foldes ud synes dybden udebliver.
Købt 2014

My favourite sipper. I'm out right now and I'm missing not having a bottle.

I tried the 5, 8, 12, 15 & 23 at the UK rumfest the 12 was the most enjoyable ..... But that was a lot of rum in one hit and without drinking a whole bottle of the 15 and not being able to afford the 23 it's hard to be sure...

El Dorado 12-Year Rum er en rigtig god rom, ikke særlig kompleks og pengene værd.
