About this deal

This FDA reasoning, while sounding more like a stereotypical government shortcoming, sounds like a legitimate excuse for brands available in the US. This Rum has a fair share of fans on the Ministry as well as Forrest’s recommendation at High Times, which I took on my last field trip there. Vanilla, cinnamon, allspice , nutmeg and marzipan all seem to find their way into the breezes as does a nice impression of toasted coconut and orange marmalade. This triple cask maturation has had a unique effect on the rum with dark raisin and fig flavours with smooth vanilla.

To my understanding, they will only tell a consumer that their rum has additives if the consumer asks. The bottling serves up delightful notes of leather, sweet dried fruits, molasses, crumbling brown sugar, dark vanilla, chocolate, nutmeg, orange peel, walnuts, cloves, dark oak, toffee, and espresso. The Dos Maderas PX 5+5 rum is a high-quality alcoholic beverage made from a blend of rums from Barbados and Guyana. The content is a full bottle of 5+5 and four samples, one each of the rum base, the Dos Cortados Sherry, the 5+3 and the Don Guido Pedro Ximenez(PX) Sherry.These rums are sent to Jerez to be aged for an additional three years in 20 year old Palo Cortado casks, and an additional two years in casks of 20 year old Pedro Ximénez casks. The rum displays itself as a rich brown coloured spirit which is obviously displaying the characteristic hue of a ‘sherried’ spirit. When the government finally wises up and allows the labeling of additives, what will the excuse of these dishonest brands be? The aroma of sherry is melded into the molasses, and I would not disagree very firmly with someone those who believes the nose should have been scored even higher than I have done.

When it arrives it is transfered to casks which previously held Dos Cortados, Palo cortado sherry for 3 years then transfered to casks which previously held Don Guido Pedro Ximenez sherry, the sweetest variety of sherry for 2 years. I’ve been intrigued by this one given the novel ageing approach you described, but I’ve yet to taste it.If your business is registered in a European Union country and has an Intra-EU VAT Number, you are qualified to make purchases without the application of VAT. It is made from a mixture of rums aged 5 to 12, which come from the best rum distillery in the world Foursquare.

Mi problema (Y repito --MI-- problema) es que no me gustan los rones dulces, siendo los Dominicanos de los mas dulces que he probado.While many of my favorite Rums have spent some time hanging out in used Sherry casks, they haven’t lost their primary identity as a RUM. S. FDA (as I’ve been told by brand owners), they won’t allow this because consumers might mistake the additives on the label as some sort of supplement. I finally tried this rum yesterday and think I will really enjoy it, it’s nice and smooth and it helps to have some notes to go along with it so that I can see how the tastes would be described. Then time for the 5+3, there the 5 stands for the aging of the base in the Caribbean and the 3 for 3 years of Solera aging in used Dos Cortados barrels in Jerez. I hope to see the day when brands with additives would be required or allowed to mention the amount they used on their labels.

This three-step aging process is very unique and brings to the rum a very interesting new taste profile.However, you can also accept or reject further cookies at any time or specify which of these cookies you would like to agree to. It tastes more like a super fortified wine due to the higher-than-usual ABV (if it were considered a wine). 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. Triple aged rum that was awarded the Gold Medal at the Ministry of Rum Tasting Competition in Miami 2009.
