DDL El Dorado 21

Solid, easy-sipping Demerara with rich caramel, vanilla and dried fruit, plenty of sweetness and smoothness, though some find it too sugary, light in intensity and not complex enough for the price.

    This stuff is the best I have had ever had the pleasure of tasting... Delicate flavours throughout the whole drink on the rocks... It's amazing Really good... If you have any money this should be a definate purchase... To mix it is a Sin Christmas cake. Hints of tobacco and sandalwood, leading into s smokiness. Sultanas, dates, blackcurrant and macadamia

    super tasty. Similar to 15y. Price difference 15y not worth it

    Auto-translated

    Had in Becketts Exeter- silky smooth.

    Pulito, preciso, delicato, rotondo, equilibrato, finale aromatico. Un vero dolcetto che prende il meglio dal 15 e dal 12 e lo evolve ancora oltre abbracciando con una raffinatezza e dolcezza tipica della distilleria
