DDL El Dorado 8 8yr 40%

"an outstanding rum for cocktails and fruit punch. Pictured here in the Rum Runner. But you can also really enjoy it on its own and for a great price, it's a must-have in my home bar."

"Had only mixed with this and was pleasantly surprised at how it sipped. Sweet caramel and toffee and a hint of oak. I'm guessing this has some amount of dosage but if so it is definitely not over done. I wish the proof was higher but it's convinced me to try the 12 or 15 soon."

"El Dorado 8yr is a very recognizable Demerara rum—woody, slightly sweet, with hints of chocolate dried fruit and spice. Its an easy, approachable sipper; lighter in profile, maybe a little simple/tame neat, but nonetheless a good starting point for the style. Cocktails are where it really shines; it’s a versatile rum that’s able to hold up on on its own and plays well with other spirits, and it’s a great value to boot."

"Aroma: fresh, sweet reed aroma, peach notes, tropical fruits, non-alcoholic light aroma. Taste: slightly alcoholic, sweet fruity light aroma, vanilla-nutty aftertaste. Light fruity-vanilla aftertaste. Excellent basic light basic Guyanese rum. Аромат: свежий, сладкий аромат тростника, персиковый ноты, тропические фрукты, не спиртуозный лёгкий аромат. Вкус: слегка спиртуозный, сладковатый фруктовый лёгкий аромат, ванильно-ореховое послевкусие. Лёгкое фруктово-ванильное послевкусие. Отличный базовый лёгкий базовый Гайанский ром."
