„The base in this rum is a blend of 5yo rum from Guyana (DDL) and Barbados (a little unclear if it comes from WIRD or Foursquare, seen both data) aged in the Caribbean. I’ve taste this and I can clearly recognize Demerara at this stage. This base are after arriving to Jerez, Spain, aged for 3 more Solera years in barrels earlier contained Dos Cortados Sherry which is very dry. I think it’s quite good even if it can’t compete with my favorite Sherry finished rum, but it’s in my opinion much better than the 5+5.“

„Kleine Schwester vom Dos Maderas 5+5 Schmeckt angenehm, beim trinken denkt man: Ach, der könnte noch ein paar Jahre Sherryfass gebrauchen. Der 5+5 ist wohl die logische Konsequenz“

„Okay taste clean, not with ice as it needs warm to get the best taste of fruit and citrus, good as a average price mixer. Recommendable for all rum drinkers but not more than that.“
