Don Q Double Cask Finish - Sherry Cask
"You get what it says on the label" is how one member put it — a light Puerto Rican column rum with an Oloroso sherry finish that reads as raisins, vanilla, caramel and a touch of chocolate. The sherry sits nicely in the background, not too dominant, not too thin. A little spice and mild bite, pleasantly sweet without being sugary. Round and very drinkable.
The community says- Balanced sherry finish
- Round and smooth
- But: Light body

Dankenswerterweise von einem Freund ein Sample abgefüllt bekommen und der Rum kann sich sehen lassen! Absoluter Preis-Leistung-Knaller. Schöne Sherry- und Schokoladennoten, mit diversen Früchten, Holz und Karamell. Im Mund mit 41% natürlich kein Überflieger, kann sich aber dennoch sehen lassen. Schön!

The Don Q from the sherry cask is a decent rum. Nice nose, vanilla and caramel mainly, but also some wood. On the palate there is also a pleasant armchair of vanilla, caramel and honey. You can also taste the sherry. Thumbs up.
Review by MoMcGurk
A little more of a bite at the end, but the flavor was nice, and there was a hint of sherry from the barrel. Mixed was very smooth.

We drank it at Hannes' JGA. Recommendation!
Review by Christian Rudt
Here you get what it says. An honest light Puerto Rican with sherry finish. The fun on the palate with the right mix of fruit and spice, some spiciness with it. Very drinkable 🥃

Read full review →Personally, I would say Don Q have as much if not more in common with Foursquare as they do their country mates Bacardi. Yes it's "light" rum but boy is it a tasty drop of rum. Paul Senft over at Got Rum! also agreed in his review . All managed...
