Dos Maderas Luxus: old aged rum made with a triple process: the initial crianza stage and then two aging stages. Just like "Dos Maderas 5+3" and "Dos Maderas PX", it is handmade and aged previously in the Caribbean and then it is shipped to the Williams & Humbert facilities, where is it aged using the solera system. It is different from the other two of the range because it is left to age for 15 years: 10 years in the Caribbean and 5 in barrels that previously held wine at Don Guido.
Tasting notes: dark amber color, with flecks of gold. The nose suggests very sweet, treacly, woody features. Touch of sea salt. It has notes of almonds, white fruit and molasses, candied orange peel. It tastes surprisingly sweet and has an appealing combination of alcohol with notes of wood and spices. Drink neat or with an ice cube or two.
