Hugomarink Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Just tried some of this the other day. Had never heard of it, but I see it goes for about the same as a bottle of Zacapa 23 YO. I was very pleasantly surprised by this rum. I found it to be super smooth and very tasty. Definitely an outstanding sipping rum. Anybody else familiar with this stuff?

khomeinist Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Yes sir. I prefer this to the Zacapa. Would you like to find heaven? Match an aged El Rey del Mundo with this fine rum. This combination was my typical dusk experience last summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This combination was my typical dusk experience last summer. I had a JL #2 with the El Dorado on Monday and it was a fantastic pairing. Wonderful. I'm drinking some Zacapa XO right now and it's not tasting as good as I remember the El Dorado tasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.T Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 This is a very good rum value for money and worthy of its numerous awards...wonderfully smooth and complex. I'm going to look for the 21 year old next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMcG Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I love this rum! I'm currently looking for a bottle of the 21 year old but unfortunately my city is sold out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcedCanuck Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I actually picked up a bottle last month after hearing so many good things about it. I can't remember what I paired it with but I did really like it but still prefer Zacapa 23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalie204 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 i have a lot of el dorado 15, but still havent tried z23, and want to ;( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWalker Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 ElDorado 12 is my go to rum. There is a huge jump in price from the 12 to the 15, so I usually stick with the 12 but it's a great rum with a few cubes and a cigar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riazp Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 On Shlomo's advice i picked up a bottle of El Dorado 15, and it is a fantastic bottle of rum, very smooth, nice sweetness to it, pairs great with every cigar i've had it with so far. This bottle will be a regular in my rotation for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangolf18 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Thanks for the tip. Is it difficult to find in the states? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWalker Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Thanks for the tip. Is it difficult to find in the states? I've seen it around the Buffalo area for a good price, not sure about elsewhere stateside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotusguy Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 El Dorado 15 and even 21 are not that hard to find in California at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
