\nProduction: This unique blend, prepared at cask strength of 42 ¼ alcohol, gives fine, distinguished aromas of an old classic rum with distinct notes of sherry oak and sweet Pedro Ximenez Sherry so distinctive of Dos Maderas 5+5 PX. \n \nTasting notes: To the palate the 10 years old rum gives a first sensation of an old rounded dry rum, then the subtle notes of smoothness and sweetness from the old casks of Pedro Ximenez begin to linger, leaving a very pleasant medium sweet aftertaste. \n \nSuggestions for consumption: Serving tips: given its extremely high quality it is recommended to serve either neat or on the rocks.

About Dos Maderas.

Jerez (Williams & Humbert bodega) for finishing ·Est. 2006 (Dos Maderas brand); 1877

Dos Maderas is a Caribbean rum brand produced and finished by Bodegas Williams & Humbert in Jerez, Spain. The rum is first aged in oak in the Caribbean (sourced from Barbados and Guyana distilleries), then shipped to Jerez where it receives a second ageing in casks that previously held Williams & Humbert's Pedro Ximénez sherry. The 'two woods' name refers to this double-cask discipline. Williams & Humbert was founded in 1877 and has been Medina-family-owned since 1979; Dos Maderas launched in 2006.

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs Dos Maderas

Jerez (Williams & Humbert bodega) for finishing

Dos Maderas - "Two Woods" - is the Williams & Humbert house's rum project, run out of the Bodegas Williams & Humbert solera cellars in Jerez. Williams & Humbert is one of the major sherry houses; the Dos Maderas concept takes Caribbean rum (sourced from Barbados and Guyana) and ages it twice. First the standard tropical ageing in the Caribbean origin, then a second ageing in Andalucia using ex-sherry casks from the Williams & Humbert cellars themselves. The brand launched in 2006; Williams & Humbert dates to 1877 and has been Medina-family-owned since 1979.

The numbers in each name spell out the wood programme. The 5J is 5 years tropical plus 3 years Spain. The PX is 5 plus 5, the second ageing in Pedro Ximenez sherry casks - heavily sweet, raisined, dark. The Seleccion Luxus runs the full programme: 5 years Caribbean, then 5 years in oloroso, then 3 years in PX, then 2 final years in Don Guido VORS PX casks. Each step layers a different sherry character. The three working expressions cover the line.

Drink the 5J as the gentle entry - the lighter sherry influence still lets the Caribbean base read through. The PX is sweeter and more dessert-oriented; it pairs naturally with dark chocolate, dried fruit, or aged cheese. The Luxus is a sipping pour for after dinner. The rum is from one place, the finishing wood from another house with three centuries of sherry tradition, and the spec sheet tells you exactly what was in each cask.
