How does this rum taste?
El Dorado Blended In The Barrel SV PM is a Guyana-born rum crafted at the Diamond & Port Mourant distillery. Distilled in 2010 using pot and column stills, it matured for nine years, resulting in a rum with a notable 49.1% ABV. The aromas present clear notes of caramel, wood, cinnamon, and tobacco, while the palate reveals a sweet, caramel-centric profile with hints of herbal and woody flavors. Users appreciate its uniqueness and complexity but note its high price and alcohol sharpness. With its blended origins and distinctiveness, this rum serves as an intriguing sampler of Guyana's rich rum heritage, although it struggles to justify the premium.

Easy sipping dorado blend. I am positively surprised. Very drinkable. Could just have a little more steam! 🤷🏼♂️ The price-performance ratio could be better, but it's definitely tasty. Slight points deducted for the bitterness in the finish.
Brussels Rhum Festival 2024: Sehr schön ausgewogen mild und würzig. Leicht Minzig/Kräuterig. Mittellanger Abgang. Nicht schlecht aber das Geld würde ich anders anlegen ;)
Was relaxing yesterday so I decided to open this little baby. I have to admit that I was a bit disappointed because this rum is dominated by the Diamond destilate that you basically cent get the Port Mourant part. I'd hoped that due to this unique way if blending (both are added to the barrel right after being destilled and then matured), that it would be a really nice blend.
SV is most prominent in this one. The caramel (included in the cask with aging with this mark) comes through in nose and taste. N:Caramel. Burnt (sugar), woody..a bit French oaky. Full bodied but also fresh. Hint of rubber. Interesting for sure. The Port Mourant part is adding the freshness I guess. But the sum of parts does create something new. T: quite sweet at first. Burnt sugar still. A bit bitter. Nice marriage between wood, cacao powder, freshness and berries (not unlike some TDL or New Grove). Don't get the typical PM aniseed vibe. SV is dominant. Finish: medium. Bitter. Molasses. Dry. Eucalyptus/minty. Better than expected. Still overpriced in the beginning. A max of 120eu would be better.
