Dos Maderas Caribbean Ron Anejo 5+5 years Rum 40%

Dos Maderas means "two types of wood" in Spanish, and the name tells the whole story of this doubly matured rum.

Expert description

Dos Maderas Caribbean Ron Anejo 5+5 Years is a Rum, blended from Barbados and Guyana, matured 5 years in the Caribbean in ex-bourbon casks and a further 5 years in Spain in ex-sherry casks, bottled at 40%.

The rum combines two countries with their own distinct rum styles, Barbados and Guyana, in a delicate blend matured in two stages. After the initial five-year maturation in the Caribbean, the rum is shipped to Spain, where it matures for a further five years in casks that previously held sherry, giving it its name "two types of wood" and a doubly layered flavour profile.
