Demerara Distillers of Guyana produces El Dorado 12-year rum and is the country's last remaining distillery, with origins tracing back to 1670. The name ""El Dorado"" references the legendary city of gold that is said to be in the country's Rupununi region.

Great taste, RAW gold color with a hint off Pirates ;)
A very inexpensive, good sipping rum. Great with coke as well.
i live in a place where restaurants rarely have great rum selections. I was surprised to find a 12 year old El Dorado. With so many positive reviews I looked forward to trying it. This one was a major disappointment to me. The taste was heavy on the Carmel. Sweet but not too sweet and a hint of vanallia But the overwhelming characteristic is the medicinal smell and taste. It smells and tastes like NyQuil - and that's being polite. After a couple it becomes more drinkable but I cannot recommend this rum. It says 12 year old run but it has the smoothness of 12 hour hootch.
Great tasting, complex sipping rum. If I can't afford a bottle of El Dorado 15, I'll go for an ED12 any day. Slightly less sweet to me than Diplomatico Reserva which I also like.
In one hand you have Appleton 12, in the other you have El Dorado 12. Wonderful value for money and pretty tasty stuff. Another sipper that goes well with a cigar. You also have Mount Gay Extra Old and Cruzan Single Barrel in this particular bracket.
A smooth amber with no harsh tones. Definitely a sweet rum and very enjoyable with cola.
I don't know why I don't really like this one I've read lots of good reviews and when I finally try this one something was missing I don't know why... I must try another time and for sure I will
Rum sympa mais fort sucré.
On sent bien le côté boisé et gourmand des rhum type enmore ou port mourant il me semble... Dommage que l'ajout de sucre est trop important à mon goût...
Pomerne sladsi rum za prijatelnu sumu. Vonou mi trochu pripominal Mount Gay Extra old. Velmi dobre sa pije sam bez miesania ....

I am a big fan of the Molasses / Caramel type flavoring in a Rum. Not too sweet, but the flavors are there. This Rum doesn't disappoint on those flavor notes! This one is definitely in my rotation.
