Superlekker, maar wat aan de dure kant
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
SV is most prominent in this one. The caramel (included in the cask with aging with this mark) comes through in nose and taste. N:Caramel. Burnt (sugar), woody..a bit French oaky. Full bodied but also fresh. Hint of rubber. Interesting for sure. The Port Mourant part is adding the freshness I guess. But the sum of parts does create something new. T: quite sweet at first. Burnt sugar still. A bit bitter. Nice marriage between wood, cacao powder, freshness and berries (not unlike some TDL or New Grove). Don't get the typical PM aniseed vibe. SV is dominant. Finish: medium. Bitter. Molasses. Dry. Eucalyptus/minty. Better than expected. Still overpriced in the beginning. A max of 120eu would be better.
Review by Henry Davies
Nose is brooding with licorice, dark chocolate and leather. Mouth is easy and approachable, a hint of cayenne pepper with sweet and herbal notes. Finish a tad bitter with sweet caramel and wood. Hint of leather. It’s a solid rum, nothing special but enjoyed it
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Easy sipping dorado blend. I am positively surprised. Very drinkable. Could just have a little more steam! 🤷🏼♂️ The price-performance ratio could be better, but it's definitely tasty. Slight points deducted for the bitterness in the finish.
Review by Rodolphe
Rumfest finally gave me the chance to taste these much-maligned bottles. Yes, it's (very) expensive for ten-year-old rum, despite the tropical aging, and that's my biggest complaint. It's quite full-bodied, perhaps a little too much so, given El Dorado's usual caramel character. But in the end, it's good, like El Dorado 21 (2020 version) only a little better. The bottles are pretty close to each other, but they're blends, so that explains it too. All in all, I think these bottles, priced at around €100, would be a good deal for discovering some nice Guyanese blends that are pleasant and accessible, without going for something very specific. Maybe that was the idea, but unfortunately it's too expensive. I didn't particularly like this one.

Brussels Rhum Festival 2024: Sehr schön ausgewogen mild und würzig. Leicht Minzig/Kräuterig. Mittellanger Abgang. Nicht schlecht aber das Geld würde ich anders anlegen ;)

Auffallend Süß. Wurde hier nachgezuckert?
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Was relaxing yesterday so I decided to open this little baby. I have to admit that I was a bit disappointed because this rum is dominated by the Diamond destilate that you basically cent get the Port Mourant part. I'd hoped that due to this unique way if blending (both are added to the barrel right after being destilled and then matured), that it would be a really nice blend.
Review by ChristophFFM
Reicht leider zu stechend. Geschmack durchaus komplex und lecker, aber nicht rund. Auch hier ist der Alkohol zu stechend. Daher kein Rum für den Alltag, aber für meine Guyana-Studie gut geeignet. Er ist auf jeden Fall angenehm und gut, aber nicht sehr gut. Der hier ist übrigens viel besser als der Bristol Port Mourant, den ich zum Vergleich hatte.
