El Dorado is a range of Demerara rums produced in Guyana. Established in 1992, the brand has won many awards and fans worldwide, with rums ranging from three to 21 years of age; and the 15 Year Old proving especially popular. Unlike solera-aged rums, the age statement relates to the youngest rum in the bottle.
Guyanan rums are very fruity and rich, among the fullest in body of all Caribbean rums. The area is known for the famed Demerara River, around which grow the finest sugar canes.
This 5 year old Gold rum is fruity, rich and intensely buttery, and we have a feeling a premium Daiquiri might just be in order. This stuff is made mainly with spirit made at Uitvlugt and the Savale stills, as well as Enmore’s wooden Coffey still.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Big, dried mango and powerful spicy aromas of cinnamon, charred oak and burnt sugar.
Palate: Delightful whack of woody spice, softened by toffee/caramel notes. Big flavours here.
Finish: The big-hearted spiciness just won’t die, fighting for supremacy with the oak.
