Description

It is unique becuase of its triple ageding process where for 5 initial years the rum is aged in the Carribean in oak casks. This is probably the most fruit filled rum I have tasted thus far with flavours of raisins, prunes and dates pouring out onto the palate. The rum displays itself as a rich brown coloured spirit which is obviously displaying the characteristic hue of a ‘sherried’ spirit. These certified rums, of the highest quality, are static aged for five years in casks that have previously been used to age Bourbon.

However, you can also accept or reject further cookies at any time or specify which of these cookies you would like to agree to. Triple aged rum that was awarded the Gold Medal at the Ministry of Rum Tasting Competition in Miami 2009. This rum is first aged in American oak barrels for five years and then transferred to Spanish oak barrels that have previously contained Pedro Ximénez wine for another five years. The Dos Maderas PX 5+5 rum has a dark amber color and an intense aroma of dried fruits, caramel, and vanilla. In addition, its alcohol content of 40% makes it a powerful but balanced drink that can be enjoyed on any occasion.Consequently, this has been a great find - sweet and smooth with the rich, dark fruit flavours I look for in a sipping rum (raisin, currants, fig) and a nice mouth-feel and finish.

This is seasoned by some tropical spice and wrapped in sherry notes, with wisps of smoky oak and a touch of tobacco leaf. The powerful and aromatic ROM is made on pot stills and the more gentle and rounded on more modern column plants. Dark amber in color, this intriguing rum offers fig and raisin notes at first, leading to rich, ripe fruit on the palate.Sherry Both Don Guido and Dos Cortados have matured for 20 years, as evidenced by Jerez-Xérs-Sherry, the oldest destination in Spain.

Finally the tasting of the 5+5 which is the 5+3 finished for two more Solera years in used PX Sherry barrels. The rum matures in American sherry casks in the Caribbean for the first five years, until it is shipped to Europe, Spain, at the end of that time. First the rum spends 3 years in Palo Cortado sherry casks, and then the rum spends the final two years of aging in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks.I myself rather enjoy sherry once in a blue moon (as well in cocktails) so I’ll probably pick up a bottle for the collection. No tenían la botella de 70cl que pedí y me mandaron 2 de 50cl sin preguntar y sin perder tiempo como hacen en otras partes. What is keeping the score from pushing up into the 90s is that the rum tastes just as much like a sherry as it does like a rum.

The finish is long and persistent, with a sweet touch that makes it perfect for pairing with desserts or for drinking as a digestif. There was a glass tumbler as a gift which wad placed inside the box over the bottle neck, of course when it was delivered the glass was smashed.This rum is too sweet and has to much taste of the PX Sherry in my opinion, but it has been very enjoyable to follow the development of this rum from the base via 5 + 3 to 5 + 5 and see how this aging (and eventually some added flavors) have changed taste and appearance. After having aged for 5 years in the Caribbean and 3 years in the wood of "two cut", the rum two woods 5 + 3 passes through a third phase of aging in barrels aging "Don Guido" Pedro Ximénex for 20 years certified By the Sherry Regulatory Council. Even if they mention it to every attendee in a tasting, what about those who aren’t able to and haven’t attended any tastings? I hope to see the day when brands with additives would be required or allowed to mention the amount they used on their labels. The region of Spain where the winery is located has a climate perfectly suited for wine and is known as Europe's wine cellar.
