DDL El Dorado 15 (2020 Release) 15yr 43%

RX9643 Good <50€
“Balanced woody and vanilla rum, great value.”

El Dorado 15 (2020 Release) is a 15-year-old rum crafted by Demerara Distillers in Guyana, renowned for its woody, vanilla, and caramel aromas. Tasted prominently with woody, vanilla, and dried fruit notes, it offers a balanced yet slightly aggressive profile. This unsweetened iteration has been favored for allowing the natural Demerara style to shine without overpowering sweetness. With an ABV of 43%, this rum is often commended for its approachable yet complex flavors, though some users feel it lacks roundedness. It appeals both to newcomers seeking a quality rum experience and seasoned enthusiasts appreciating its restraint and price point. Suitable as an everyday sipper, El Dorado 15 is often compared to its predecessors for better value and reduced sweetness.

“Compared to the old sweeter version this one is a step forward. Instead of the sugar covering your palate you get a more hones and slightly spicy palate. The wood is there and so are the spices and semi heavy caramel, but it is a far better version. If you get the chance then give it a try. Price to quality is very good.”

“Intense and balanced taste of grilled tropical fruit and with notes of oak and spices - lots of sweetness and with good pressure on the flavors 👍 Long lasting and smooth aftertaste 😁”

“After finding out that Guyana rum without added sugar was on offer here, as a Guyana fan I simply had to try it. It was more than worth it. Roasted coffee with caramelized fruit and chocolate shavings. For me, this is THE rum profile par excellence. A little more mature and woody than the 12y. An absolute highlight for the price and a hit for those looking for an unsweetened rum to start with or as a sipper.”
