The initial sweetness of the tropical fruits gives way to a symphony of rich notes. Hints of caramel and vanilla, imparted by the oak cask ageing, mingle with the spice from the rum s unique Demerara heritage. The influence of the wooden pot stills whispers in the background, adding a touch of chocolatey depth.

As you savour each sip, the flavours continue to evolve. The spice takes on a more prominent role, offering hints of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. A touch of oak emerges, adding a touch of dryness that perfectly complements the sweetness. The El Dorado 12 Year Old is a masterclass in balance, offering a delightful dance of flavours that keeps you coming back for more.

A Long and Lingering Finish

The El Dorado 12 Year Old leaves a lasting impression on the palate. The finish is long and elegant, with the flavours slowly fading away.
