El Dorado 15 Year Rum

The 12 yr is a great rum. This is even better as you would hope with the extra age and price. Poured neat the nose is barrel oak drenched in melted butter and caramelized brown sugars. Baking spices, pencil lead and shoe leather round it out. Palate is oily and rich with buttery dark toffee, raw vanilla, Christmas spice, old leather jacket, seasoned oak and distant warming smoke. The finish is long with smoked buttered oak, fading brown sugar, nutmeg, vanilla and aged leather. It dries out enough to balance the sweet notes. This is complex delicious all star rum. Do not pass go, do not collect $200, do not hesitate. If you are a rum lover.....hell even if you are not just buy this. For around $40-50 you will get an exquisite liquor that proves rum can be an elite sipper. Worst case you can have the best rum and coke of your life.....91/100

Vanille, caramel, une pointe d'agrumes, texture veloutée. Belle complexité et richesse.
