El Pasador de Oro XO

Incredible value ( $36 in Texas ) very fine sipper !...nose; Soft dark Caramel , tropical ripe fruits , very soft wood and light whisper of licorice...palate; delicious very yummy ripe peaches, honey comb, sweet mango a touch of tart , mild but pure vanilla oak to round off flavors in mid palate , Finish ; very velvety with ripe apricot and a pinch of fresh grated cinnamon....aftertaste has a touch of sweet sautéed orange zests ..., and very light anis ....delicious at room temperature ( 75-80 F) , even better if let sit a little in glass , no mix, no water , no ice !

Paid $36.99 at Total Wine in DE. Has a sweet nose and deep amber color. You can taste the finishing of this rum in cognac casks. Very smooth and sweet, very little burn. A nice dessert rum.

Superbe rhum dans sa finition en fut de cognac, long en bouche très suave avec un final riche et puissant. Un rapport qualité prix imbattable...

I will not lie, this had me worried but when I tried Mount Gay XO I had hope for the XO's brands. I smelled nothing at first but when I had my first sip it really starting the work! . It has a nice complex taste and goes down smooth!! This replaces my Mount Gay XO as a restock rum in my collection and added in my rum tastings. You don't miss with this one.

It’s on sweet side so I enjoyed with just topo Chico and a lime. Enjoyed the night!

Simple and cheap and good to sip. With ice or as a mixer, too diluted

Superbe robe , nez boisé et rond en bouche. Excellent

I love this El Pasador de Oro XO Rum, I go through a bottle a month, I think the last one has only lasted 2 weeks. This is my favorite. The sweetness is perfect, it's smooth. I can't stand Rums that taste like bourbon. I have had Ron Zacapa rums before and liked the one with the tan colored braded material on it - probably about $40 I liked that and the expensive one in the rounded bottle - probably about #125 now. I used to like it but, I don't like it anymore. I think the last two bottles have gone bad or, it just sucks now. Taste like it went bad like a half bottle of red wine goes bad after a week on the counter.

Part of the 2021 24 days of Rums calendar. Eager to share my experience!
