Really liked this rum better than the 15 year old and cheaper notes of banana and brown sugar

Super beau produit
Les saveurs explose de partout
De prime abord on goûte les fruits rouges confis et des note de mélasse par la suite votre bouche est enrobé par une belle chaleur et vien une saveur de noix grillé avec une final boisé bien équilibré

For the price it's a good affordable sweet rum. Better options out there though

Rich and wonderful sipper, hard down as one of my favorite rums.

Not as sweet as I thought, but it surprised me a lot. It’s fruity with a good vanilla touch! Nice bottle too...

In my opinion this rum is not too sweet, has a nice smell, taste some vanilla and oak.

Well balanced, just a bit more bourbon flavor than I like. Smooth taste and smooth finish maintaining the same flavor.

As many other reviewers have pointed out this is a smooth, sweet and sour rum made for everyday drinking — and priced for it too.

A little on the sweet side but has great flavour and a fantastic nose, very good sipper

It's so good that I can't give it less than 9, it's different than 15 and 21, a bit smoother, less dark chocolate notes, molasses bit more vanilla, cinnamon, oak taste kinda feel different in every other El Dorado... it's not sweet rum, as someone says, the amount of sugar is kinda optimal in my opinion, it's well-balanced. Well, El Dorado 8 is absolutely less sweet but I conclude that 12 is more "polished", better balanced and more suitable for most people. I still prefer El Dorado15 the most but it's such an enjoyble moment with every El Dorado.
