"A rum you can't really dislike. Super pleasing, sweet profile, without ever seeming clumsy, sticky or uninteresting. The other flavors around smoke, spice and nuts are also so harmoniously embedded that there is neither too much bitterness, spicy sharpness nor too hackneyed sweetness. This balance is unfortunately somewhat at the expense of complexity, which is why it is not enough for me to the very highest consecration. Nevertheless, impressive quality and an excellent rum that shows its existing flavor profile in perfection."
"For me, another masterpiece by Demerara"
"Very nice sweet and round profile. My favourite kind of Demerara. Some hints of salted peanuts add even more complexity. One of the best rum I've ever tasted 🥰"
"Ein toller Rum. Schwere Süsse, Früchte, Leder, Vanille, Lakritz und ein wenig Minze und gezalzene Karamell. Das Holz ist im Vergleich zum ElDorado wesentlich präsenter und intensiver. Auch ist der ED süsser, gefälliger. Ein wenig jüngere Rumgeschichte im Glas🥃🥹🤗Ich war sehr auf diese Probe gespannt. Es ist ein top Rum zweifelsohne. Für die Zeit seiner Veröffentlichung beeindruckend. Mir persönlich gefällt der ED 04 bei der Probe heute besser. Insgesamt wirkt er komplexer und vollmundiger für mich. Wenn ich denke wie Rum sich demnach in den letzten 10-15 Jahren qualitativ entwickelt hat, ist dieser Rum und sein Abfüller sehr beeinflussend gewesen. Aus heutigem Standpunkt würde ich für diesen Rum jedoch sicher nicht 4000 Eddies hinlegen, speziell wenn es den anderen noch für 250 gibt."
