Doorly's XO 6-Year

A nice introductory aged rum for a whisky lover. The sherry note is very distinct.

This is a good older brother of the 5y, the taste is more dry and has deeper woody tones. Wonderful on the nose, with vanilla, oak, and tropical fruits, on the palate there is vanilla, banana and citrus fruits, the aftertaste is pronounced compared to 5y, spicy with some oak. Good job this one.

Very drinkable. Very enjoyable. May raise this to an 8. Smooth, complex with Sherry, oak, smoke and a charred finish that is not long but very good. If I had never tried Worthy Park Sherry finish I would rate this higher. The Worthy Park has spoiled me for Sherry finished rums. Nonetheless this is easy to sip and and packs some punch. Better neat than on ice but tasty either way.

Toto je pro můj favorit. Barbados jako ostrov mám spjatý s rumem a tento je opravdu pro mne výjimečný. Dostal jsem jej jako dárek za moje fotky a jeho chuť mne opravdu nadchla. Je drsný a přitom zázračně jemný. Dlouhý dozvuk chutě sudu je nádherný a láká k opakovanému pití.

A smooth rum with a spicy finish. Good flavor, although nothing stands out on the nose.

Tastes like rum without standing out in any particular flavor profile. Typical of Foursquare rums, not sweetened but still flavorful with a hint of sweetness.

Spicy finish and some good tingle and burn.

100% would drink again, if not my first choice.

Not even close to my favorite but given everything price depth and value this is a solid rum. Medium dark brown color slight alcohol burn mellowed out by the Spanish sherry aging. Might need to revisit on a fresh pallet.

This will begin my trawl though more Doorly's offerings. Taken straight with an ice cube. Not too sweet and with a finish.

I like doorlys but this one tasted rather bland,I could taste sherry influences and that's it. Its good and such but not for me.
