    "A fine rum that is appreciated even with the presence of added sugars (without it surely would have taken more). Rich with well-balanced aromas of spice, wood, leather and cigar. Too bad it is too sweet. An easy and pleasant rum to taste."

    "Not as sweet as the 12yo with aromas of caramel, vanilla and fruits. At the palate it’s rather complex and well balanced even if the Demerara sugar dominates. It’s a rum that sets some kind of standard."

    "We go up in range and price but the difference in complexity and especially pleasure is not justified compared to the 12 years, which remains my favorite in the El Dorado range."
