I have not found any figures on added sugar for this one, I suspect there is some though minimal compared to its older brethren. This has become my favorite in the lineup.

Edit : This one has around 15 grams/ltr of added sugar, which is a fair amount but only 1/3 as much as the 12 yr and half as much as the 15 - neither of which will I buy any more. Why should I when I could pay $15 for this and add some sugar, resulting in pretty much the same flavor profile?

I don't much care for mixed drinks anymore; but when I do, I either reach for this one or the Appleton reserve. I find this one goes good with pepsi

a very big difference with the 12-year-old but still excellent rum at a great price

Lambs Amber is my usual base mixing rum for rum and soda drinks. Most of my friends who are Cuba Libre drinkers are also Lambs Amber fans. Not being a fan of this drink myself I can't compare how E.D. 8 enhances the drink. I do however like it in a nice rum cocktail. For the price this is certainly a step up from a Lambs or Captain Morgan.

Makes a nice rum and coke. Easy to drink with a sweet caramel flavour. Not really any other flavours that really stand out, but easy to drink. Wouldn't drink this as a sipper, but good mixer.

Maybe it would not be a bad rum, if I had not tested El Dorado 12.

Hints of "Bananas Foster"...bananas, caramel and butterscotch.

A friend that doesn't really have much experience buying "fancy" rum, bought this as a holiday gift. I opened it up one night planning on making drinks with it, as a mixer...however after a little bit of a taste, I went for rocks and was pleasantly surprised.

Velice dobry rum s bajecnym pomerem cena/vykon. Vune je krasne nasladla a ovocna, chut opet sladsi, rum je jemny, ale je citit trochu alkoholovy ocas. Vyborne piti, doporucuji.

Delicieux pour un jeune rhum. Par contre pour 5$ de plus au Quebec vous pouvez mettre la mais sur le 12 ans qui est exeptionel.
