    How does this rum taste?

    El Dorado 3 is a 3-year-old rum from Demerara Distillers Ltd in Guyana, distilled from molasses and bottled at 40% ABV. It features aromatic notes of lemon, nougat, coffee, and vanilla. The flavor profile is marked by vanilla, milk chocolate, and a hint of pepper. While not overly complex, it's appreciated for its silky texture and suitability in cocktails like Daiquiris and Mojitos. Some find it basic with a subtle sweetness, making it more suitable as a mixer than for drinking neat. El Dorado 3 is valued for its aromatic complexity, though expectations from its origin suggest room for improvement.

    6.3/10 34 reviews

    Tried this one as a sample in the mall today and I think it's better in a mixer than pure.

    I have no idea how to explain taste. But this is good in a daiquiri

    Basic with a hint of sweetness. I bought this to see if DDL can make a delicious 'white' rum. It's not bad, but it's not very impressive. This is a mixer. I won't rebuy.
