A marvellous 12 year old rum from the Dominican Republic, aged in American oak casks. A gorgeous bottle, and a rum to match its gorgeousness.
Thick caramel and honey, with old oak and cigar box coming through clearly. Develops touches of candied orange peel and redcurrants later on.

Be careful.....very careful.The 12yo has been replaced with the 12 Reserva. I quite liked the rather one dimensional approach that the 12yo took, and it was an easy rum to drink.The 12 Reserva is utterly disgusting. It's as if they have spiced it and are using younger rums. There is now no longer any use of an age statement, hence why I think 12 Reserva might be being disingenuous. The 12yo was good, the 12 Reserva is nearly (to me at least) undrinkable.

Very nice Rum. Quite a sweet one and fairly smooth. Not quite up to my fave El Dorado 15 but nevertheless a lovely drink.

Very nice rum however caused severe headaches which made me worry about the level of congeners in this drink. (only ever drink a glass or 2) taste smoothness and nose all beautiful. Headache not so much

I was genuinely shocked first tasting this rum as it tasted to me like a spiced rum. I had to double check the specs. The American oak overly dominates giving it a predominant vanilla flavour. It doesn't taste like straight rum at all. For the money it's not a good deal if you're after something that packs a real rum punch. There's no bite. At all. It's nice, it's smooth, but I think it's trying too hard to appeal to the masses.

Nice. Quite bitter initially in the front of the tongue but warms and leaves a subtle sweet note. The woody taste is clear and quite dominant. I'd recommend for those preferring deeper rum blends.

My favourite rum at the moment. So smooth. Not a rum snob so can’t say it taste of hollyhocks or anything but it’s good. So good that I’m sitting in the garden now drinking it.

A great rum with plenty of oak and depth of flavour. A great value sipping rum.
