Dos Maderas Rum

Dos Maderas is the rum that crosses the Atlantic twice, first as young rum from Barbados and Guyana, then as further-aged rum in Spanish sherry casks in Jerez. "Two woods" isn't just a name, it's the entire production secret.

  • Dos Maderas Atlantic Double Aged rum bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-19754

    Five years in the Caribbean's tropical heat, three years in Jerez's Spanish wine climate, this rum crosses the Atlantic twice, first as distillate, then as aged rum, before landing in the glass.

    Expert Description

    Dos Maderas Atlantic Double Aged Rom is a Caribbean Rum, double-aged 5 years in ex-bourbon casks and a further 3 years in sherry casks in Spain, bottled at 37.5%.

    Dos Maderas, produced by the Spanish sherry house Williams & Humbert, is known for its transatlantic ageing process. The first maturation takes place in the Caribbean in casks that previously held bourbon, after which the rum is shipped to Jerez, Spain, for a further maturation in sherry casks. The Atlantic release continues this concept, with a deep amber colour as the result of the meticulous, double ageing process.

    The result is a complex, seductive rum where Caribbean and Spanish traditions meet in one bottle.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Candied fruit, dark chocolate and a subtle hint of vanilla and oak.

    Palate

    Smooth and balanced with sweet spices, hazelnut and a lingering finish of caramel and sweet tobacco.

    Finish

    Vibrant with spices, caramel and toasted nuts, plus hints of oak and raisin.

  • Dos Maderas 5+3 Rum Caribbean Ron Anejo bottle
    Item no.: 227865421-42

    The name Dos Maderas means "two woods" and refers to the long journey the rum makes from the Caribbean to Jerez in Spain, where it receives a final finish in sherry casks.

    Expert Description

    Dos Maderas 5+3 is a Caribbean Ron Añejo, double-aged in bourbon and sherry casks, bottled at 37.5%.

    The rum is produced by Bodegas Williams & Humbert, the Spanish sherry house founded in 1877 in Jerez, which helped establish Spain's first official Denominación de Origen for sherry in the 1930s. The rum blend behind Dos Maderas is sourced from several Caribbean countries and first ages for 5 years in ex-bourbon casks in the tropical climate, before being shipped to Jerez to mature a further 3 years in casks that previously held the house's oldest sherry. The number 5+3 in the name refers directly to this two-stage ageing.

    The result is a round, sherry-forward rum, where dried fruit and caramel meet a soft, lightly winey finish.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Caramel, dried fruit and a touch of sherry.

    Palate

    Round and soft with raisin and a light winey character.

    Finish

  • Dos Maderas Caribbean Seleccion Triple Aged rum bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-1972708

    Three ageing stages across two continents, where the Spanish sherry family Williams & Humbert adds the final, defining touch to a Caribbean rum blend.

    Expert Description

    Dos Maderas Caribbean Seleccion Triple Aged is a Caribbean Rum, a blend from Barbados and Guyana assembled by the Spanish sherry house Williams & Humbert and bottled at 42%.

    The rum goes through three ageing stages: first the rum matures separately in Barbados and Guyana, then the two rum types are blended and shipped to Jerez in Spain, where Williams & Humbert finishes the blend further in casks that previously held PX and Oloroso sherry from their own bodega. The Dos Maderas range is the house's take on how Caribbean rum can be enriched by the Spanish sherry tradition, and Seleccion Triple Aged is one of the range's most ambitious, darkest releases.

    The result is almost tawny port-like in colour, with a rich, sherry-driven depth.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Raisin, fig, plum and vanilla cream, with a hint of five-spice.

    Palate

    Rich and velvety with oak, sherry sweetness and dried fruit, supported by stewed fruit and toasted hazelnut.

    Long, spiced and elegant, with a sweet sherry character.

About Dos Maderas

Dos Maderas is made by the Spanish wine house Williams & Humbert in Jerez, an old sherry family whose master blender carefully selects rum from Barbados and Guyana before further aging it in casks from the house's own sherry production. The double aging journey gives the rum a depth suited equally to an evening sipper and a serious collector's shelf.

History & Background

The house behind Dos Maderas was founded in 1877 by sherry lover Sir Alexander Williams and his partner Arthur Humbert, but it was in the 1960s that the Medina family, who had worked at other Jerez wine houses, decided to establish their own firm, Jose Medina y Compania. Williams Humbert was later acquired and gave its name to the entire company's activities, including rum production.

Production & Style

The rum is first aged five years in the Caribbean, after which it's shipped across the Atlantic to Spain, where it's further aged for another three years in casks that previously held the award-winning Dos Cortados Oloroso sherry. The final stage adds up to two more years of aging in heavier Pedro Ximénez casks, giving the rum its deep amber color and delicate sweetness.

Signature Style

Soft, Delicate, Sherried
The flavor offers a soft, delicate character with notes of raisin, fig, and vanilla, carried by the characteristic sweetness of the sherry casks.
