Dos Maderas Px Triple Aged 5 + 5 Rum 750 ML

Extremely Smooth. Once you understand how Dos Maderas P.X. 5+5 is aged, you’ll have a full appreciations of it’s deep mahogany color, a reddish brown hue likebrilliant sapphire. The heavier caramel rum aromas are lifted by sweet traces of sherry, and subsequently reveal nuts (pecan) and vanilla, charred wood, dried fruit (raisins, figs, dates, plums and black cherries), then comes slightly earthy, musty and tannic scents where sugar cane meets grape, and old leather.

The initial taste wows from the complexity of fine rum blended with sherry depth, delivering herbaceous and sweet flavors without being cloying, fruity and substantial, and some spice (nutmeg, allspice) to enhance the flavors.  A medium-heavy weight body sets up a a finely balanced, long duration finish that enables you to savor more lightly charred oak, hints of tobacco, more than a little sherry, and very mild anise.

Dos Maderas PX is the product of a triple aging process. First the rum rests for 5 years at its place of origin, in the Caribbean, then it is moved to Williams & Humbert facilities in Spain, where the rum is subjected to two more phases of aging for a period of 5 years. On arrival, the rum is transferred to American oak casks which have previously held 'Dos Cortados' Palo Cortado Sherry and subsequently to casks which have been used to age 'Don Guido' Pedro Ximénez.

Both Dos Cortados and Don Guido are of an average age of 20 years, guaranteed and certified by the D.O. Jerez-Xérès-Sherry. This fusion of cultures brings about the perfect harmony, balance and blending of aromas and flavours which make Dos Maderas PX a truly unique rum.
