El Dorado Diamond High Ester
El Dorado Diamond High Ester
The El Dorado Diamond High Ester (DHE) / La Bonne intention (LBI) rum is the first to be released in the El Dorado High Ester Blend Series. This rum combines the La Bonne Intention (LBI) rum marque from the versatile French Savalle Still with the never-before released Diamond High Ester (DHE) rum marque from our Double Retort Copper Pot Still.
Aged for 11 years this blend of rums offers a much higher level of esters than a traditional rum resulting in a rum that is flavourful and bursting with fruity and floral aromas.
Tasting notes
Aroma:
Gusts of figs and start-fruit whiff ahead, trailed by cinnamon and vanilla notes, and balanced by the mellow aromas of toffee and honey, with hints of banana undertones.
Taste: the brief introduction of orange peel is overlayed with rich spicy notes in the pallet, prominently vanilla with cinnamon. Clove, dark chocolate, and slightly burner caramel hit the mid-palate delicately, before a smooth transition to honey that softens the leathery, spicy finish. A rum to be sipped and savoured for its delicateness as much as its deep impact, lush minerality and dry finish
