Dos Maderas PX 5+5

Oft wird dieser Rum für Einsteiger empfohlen. Leider ist er mir trotz seiner Süße zu trocken, "scharf" und würzig.

I think the French started it and Spain does a nice job further aging Caribbean rums another 5 years in Brandy casks. I wish they did not add in sugars as this is a solid great sipping rum. Tasted again and moved it up a notch.

Très bon rhum facile d approche du fait du coté "sucré". En bouche c est riche! De nombreuses saveurs remontent.
Pas pour les amateurs de rhums sec

The smoothest liquor I have ever tried...noticeably better than all of the other more expensive rums I’ve had

Bottle: nice classic bulbous shape + right cork cap
Color: Darker amber
Aroma: wonderfully delicate, rum-scent without any smoky or pungent tails. It is similar to Contadora 15 or Diplomatico 12, perhaps a little stronger.
Taste: Although many reviews say it's more of a sweet rum, it's not quite true. At the beginning it is slightly sweet, but the end is so slightly sharper - whiskey taste. It's a little less sweet than Diplomatico 12 or even the Contadora 15. After a longer sipping, the sharpness disappears a bit (or you get used to it). But it is definitely not dry rum.

I have to admit that the Contadora 15, with which I compared it, tastes a little better. Contadora is not a well-known rum, but it is really good.

But I definitely recommend Dos Maderas. I give 8 points from 10.

Surprisingly good for a younger rum. Nice flavor combinations.

My best. Very tasty, I love its sherry cask😀 accurate sweet, lovely cherry, caramel. Great for sipping.

Rozhodovala jsem se mezi 5+5 a Seleccion a připadalo mi, že chuťový rozdíl není natolik výrazný, abych zvolila dražší výrobek. Jemný sladší rum.

Veľmi jemný a vyvážený rum. Vôňa po trstinovom cukre, vanilke, slabo nejaké ovocie. Chuť sladšia jemná po sherry a záver mi pripomína horku čokoládu.

Sweet, smooth, pleasant and interesting surprise for me. I like it.
