El Dorado 15 Year Old Special Reserve Guyana Rum 700ml
A delicious blend of Caribbean rum, El Dorado 15 Year Old marries spirits from the Enmore and Diamond Coffey stills, the Port Mourant double wooden pot still and the Versailles single wooden pot still. All the tasty spirits are blended and then aged in bourbon oak casks before bottling.
Dark brown sugar and thick, gooey toffee, notes of stewed stone fruits, prunes and molasses. Finishes long and creamy with thick, dark spices.
This was rated the best rum in the world at the International Wine and Spirit Competition four years running, and for good reason!
This is very good value for money. A Piedmont red under $30! It has good dark fruit, some nice tannins and acid to balance although it would benefit from some more age to smooth it a bit but I liked its feistiness now.
I was happily surprised by the quality of the labels in the "mystery" case of rose wines - great value for the money I must say. Excellent drinking experience from the unfamiliar labels and happy to enjoy again the familiar ones.
