The El Dorado Rare Collection
The El Dorado 1998 DLR Diamond enchants with its captivating aroma, starting with lighter notes that gradually reveal layers of dense vanilla, a sprinkle of pepper, milk chocolate, and sweet spices. The complex nose also includes tropical coconut, rich oak, toasted undertones, and an intriguing hint of glue. Upon tasting, the palate delivers powerful yet balanced flavors, featuring a smoky and coppery touch that transitions into a fuller mid-palate of toasted oak, a sprinkling of pepper, and a range of tropical fruits. The finish is a concentrated burst of oaky spirit, leaving a lasting impression without overwhelming the senses.

The nose of this rum is a beautiful symphony of tropical fruits, citrus, minty freshness, slightly toasted wood, and caramelized sweetness with toffee. The palate is intense and complex, with exceptional depth presented through honeyed notes, the sweetness of tropical fruits like pineapple and marmalade, and the dark side of the Demerara profile which brings out spices, wood, and chocolate. Freshness emerges throughout, making it a superb profile, while the finish is exquisite, long, and pleasant.
Balancing the darkness of old Demerara with a traditional Barbados feel of coconut, caramel, cocoa, and coffee toffee, along with light tobacco, this rum is both warm and cozy, providing a memorable and powerful experience. This remarkable Diamond is a testament to the craftsmanship of the Diamond Distillery and a true celebration of the El Dorado brand's legacy.
