El Dorado 15 (Onwards 2020) 15-Year

Good, solid Demerara rum. Personally, I'll be sticking with the 12 year. Nice caramel notes, but nothing that makes this stand out over the 12.

I wouldn’t blame you if you mistook this for bourbon, has most of the same flavor palette as a bourbon only slightly sweeter!

A very good and tasty rum, honest fifteen-year aging has done its positive work.

I found out about this just recently. Had not had the heavily dosed Guyanese rums in over 20 years. Woody and smoky. Competes with Ron del Barrilito 4 star, which costs 5-6x as much!

strange smell when opened, rather dry I thought it would be a little sweeter and more fragrant, a day after opening it improved a lot. Two months after opening it lost a lot of flavor.

Came across a gift set that included the El Dorado 15 plus the 21 year and 12 year. I was no stranger to the 12 but eager to try the 15 and 21. I was so impressed with this rum and will look forward to my next opportunity to add this to my bar.

This is a very fine rum. I had to five it 7 or 8, but personally I'm not a big fan of the heavy tobacco taste, so a 7 for me. Still very drinkable

The nose is intensely sweet, reminiscent of various candies, which initially raised some concern as I typically don't favor such flavors. However, on the palate, it transforms into a richer combination of dark coffee and caramel notes, resulting in a very enjoyable experience. Adding a few drops of water seems to exacerbate the sweetness, possibly due to its already modest 40% (ABV).

I love the original and did not think it could get better and they did it.
The 15 year old is the Rum I use to introduce people to "aged" rum and for the price there is nothing in its class.

Yeah, you can feel the sugar right away, but he has anyway a complex, full aroma, which let you travel. still, not the very top ones, but excellent
