I like it and think it is definitely worth buying. As far white 151 proof rums go I've only had El Dorado High Strength and Bacardi 151 but I've had many 80 proof whites. It has a mildly grassy aroma and an organic semi sweet flavor, totally unlike Bacardi 151 which has a harsh flavor and is not suitable for sipping. El Dorado on the other hand is a bit of a sipper. Tastes like a fine silver rum and goes down easy, once you learn how to avoid the burn! It is great for those occasions when you want to float a high proof spirit without significantly changing the flavor of the underlying drink, but be careful as you can easily over do it because it goes down so easy in a mixed drink.
