El Dorado 12 Year Old Rum (700ml)

"...as a general all rounder for a lower price, this one is hard to beat". - the lonecaner.com

A blend of rums from the original Wooden Enmore Coffey still, the original metal Diamond Coffey still, as well as from the Port Mourant Double Wooden Pot Still. Bright burnished copper colour. Opens with rich aromas of roasted nuts, vanilla bean, cafe creme and raw sugar. A creamy entry is followed by a plush, intense, sticky date, creme caramel extravaganza with lively spices adding depth and vibrancy. Creamy vanilla, liquorice bullet finale. Concludes satisfying, warming, long. Luxe rum at a budget price. 40% Alc./Vol.

Other reviews... Having written all the above, what would I recommend? Truth to tell, I’d use this as a high end mixer for sure, and if looking for a premium sipper, just go up to the 15, or blow a hundred for the 21.  But as a general all rounder for a lower price, this one is hard to beat – it deserves a place on your shelf for all those visitors to your rooms or houses or apartments who want to try something a bit richer than Bacardi, Appleton V/X, Lamb’s or Mount Gay (those standard staples of the young), but don’t want to bust the bank doing it. - thelonecaner.com

Medium depth of gold. Super attractive nose packed with wonderful aromas of Demerara sugar, honey, toffee, raisin and sultanas. Wonderful balance of rich, ripe flavours and sweetness with rich spice and firm frame. After all the sweet characters there is a delightful, dry finish. Beautifully elegant rum.
