El Dorado 18 Year Old Bourbon & Cognac Cask Finished Demerara Rum
Pour this one neat and it drinks easily, with a soft weight that never turns heavy at 80 proof (40% ABV). Caramel and dried fruit sit together up front, and orange peel cuts through the sweetness just enough to keep things lively. Cocoa shows up underneath, with vanilla and polished oak trailing the finish.
This is Demerara rum from Guyana, a molasses-based style known for its depth. Eighteen years of maturation began in bourbon barrels and closed in Cognac casks, and the tropical climate does its work faster than cooler regions do, which explains how much has settled into the liquid.
It is bottled additive free, so what you taste came from the cane, the barrels, and the years. A straightforward sipper that also holds its shape over a large cube if you prefer it cold. 750 mL.
