For the ageing of a rum such as El Dorado 12 years Special Reserve, oak barrels are used that have previously contained American bourbon from Kentucky and, like the other rums of the same brand.

It is considered one of the best in the world because of the perfect balance of flavour and aroma achieved in its careful production process.

Tasting notes. Sight, smell and taste

When you drink a glass of El Dorado 12 years Special Reserve, you will be struck by its deep golden amber colour. You will enjoy an aroma with notes of dried fruits, such as ripe apricots and nuts, almonds, honey, caramel and sultanas. On the palate, it manages to balance the touches of wood with ripe fruits, providing a round sensation with a very long dry finish, which will conquer your palate.

Pairing. How to taste it

From Yo pongo el hielo we recommend drinking it on its own to perceive the perfect balance of flavour and aroma.
