Introduction

Get to know:Doorly’s XO Barbados Rum Oloroso Finish (70cl, 43%)

Tasting Note

To produce the unique character of Doorly’s XO, very old rums are selected by the master blender and matured for a second time in Spanish oloroso sherry casks, producing a delicious fusion of complex flavours from the cask and the well-aged rums.

Very elegant nose of toffee with hints of vanilla and mocha. A rich yet subtle rum surprisingly mellow. Demerara sugar, treacle, liquorice and aniseed on the palate. Exceptionally smooth.
