Doorly’s XO Sherry Finish

Real nice rum. I might like it’s 12 yr old sibling a bit more, but this is a nice rum. They are very different. This one is sweeter, the 12 ur is more complex. Room for this o e on my shelf as well.

Intense vanilla, mild and buttery. On the palate, the spice of the barrel predominates. Only a slight vanilla note.The influence of the sherry finish is minimally noticeable in the finish.A beautiful rum for purists, which makes the advantages of Barbados clear, especially on the nose.

I have never tasted a better rum for the price. Perfectly balanced flavor profile does not overpower with any particular taste, but rather the harmony of all flavors present. Sherry surfaces in every sip

For its price this one is excellent. Sherry's flavor is there but not overwhelming.

Super Plv. Really great starter rum.

I just had Doorlys 12 YO prior to XO and I am not sure if I am weird or everyone else, that gives 12 a higher rate, is. I will be 100% honest with you. The maturation after sherry is awesome it gave XO everything that I missed with 12YO. The sweetness, the prominent chocolate/banana taste is highlighter with oak barrel/wood being suppressed to the background. With 12YO you had banana taste mixed with sour green apple all underlined by huge woody taste. This one is none of that, you get vanilla, 🍌, raisins, chocolate all underlined but not overpowered by wood/oak. For me this one is a winner and I do not care. The nose is very similar but the palate is a different story. Medium to long finish. 75/100 for me.

Price/quality definitely worth its money. At first round and somewhat sweet with familiar Bajan notes, evolves to smoky-woody to the dry (influence of the sherry barrels?) with peppery notes and some burning from the alcohol. Bitter notes of tobacco remain.

Recommend for beginners 🤙

Lösungsmittel und etwas Rauch in der Nase, im Geschmack leichte Schärfe aber insgesamt rund.

Compared to Doorly’s 12, a little less oaky on the nose and palate, and a bit more cinnamon on the finish. Altogether tasty, but a little less “classic Foursquare” than the 12.

Rond & fruity

First off, you get a lot for your money in my mind. This is a great beginner rum as well because it's light and rounded.Nice and fruity with spices well balanced with the woody notes. I like the warm touch on the palate.The nose is wonderful in the empty glass after an hour or so.

Definitely a bang for a buck. Lots of coconut in the flavour profile. Magnificent starting point rum. I’d definitely reccomend getting a bottle when you are starting out

Oproti 12 a 14 lihovy

Etwas dünn, wenig Geschmack, Kalk, viel Neutralalkohol. Das Oloroso-Finish kann ich nicht rausschmecken. Der Rum wirkt sehr jung.
