This competition, later expanded to include other beverages and spirits, has positioned itself as a recognized authority on alcoholic beverages and top-tier professional reviews. Its tastings, conducted in a specialized laboratory under ideal conditions and led by a panel of experts, have made the Beverage Testing Institute the go-to reference for media outlets such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, CNBC, CBS, New Yorker, Wine & Spirits, Forbes, and Wine Enthusiast.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Within this prestigious framework, the Dos Maderas rums from Bodegas Williams & Humbert have been awarded the Gold Medal at the Rum Awards 2025, organized by the Beverage Testing Institute. <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"872\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Ron-Dos-Maderas-55-2-872x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Bottle of Dos Maderas rum with a glass on a tray\" class=\"wp-image-2866\" srcset=\"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Ron-Dos-Maderas-55-2-872x1024.jpg 872w, https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Ron-Dos-Maderas-55-2-256x300.jpg 256w, https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Ron-Dos-Maderas-55-2-768x901.jpg 768w, https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Ron-Dos-Maderas-55-2.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 872px) 100vw, 872px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dos Maderas 5+5 Rum has earned the Gold Medal, scoring 95 points. The Beverage Testing Institute Rum Awards 2025 describes this rum as \u201cClean dark brown color. Enticing aromas and flavors of freshly brewed espresso, toasted Demerara sugar, violets, red berries, dunder, and grapefruit, with a creamy, full-bodied texture and a very long finish highlighted by notes of maple cream, toasted coconut flakes, and chopped nuts. Caribbean character meets Spanish heritage in this robust, aged rum with a barrel finish, rich in dunder and sherry notes.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"872\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Ron-Dos-Maderas-53-2-872x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Bottle of Dos Maderas 5+5 rum on a plinth\" class=\"wp-image-2867\" srcset=\"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Ron-Dos-Maderas-53-2-872x1024.jpg 872w, https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Ron-Dos-Maderas-53-2-256x300.jpg 256w, https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Ron-Dos-Maderas-53-2-768x901.jpg 768w, https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Ron-Dos-Maderas-53-2.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 872px) 100vw, 872px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, Dos Maderas 5+3 Rum has earned the Gold Medal with 93 points. It is also described by experts as a rum \u201cwith a clean dark amber color. Citrus aromas and flavors of orange oil, pine wood, and Demerara sugar, with a light-to-medium body, tannic and semi-dry, and a long finish with nuances of pear and plum, orange peel, vanilla cream, and maple syrup. A smooth, flavor-rich aged rum that can replace your favorite whisky in an Old Fashioned.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dos Maderas 5+5 and 5+3 win Gold Medals at the Beverage Testing Institute Rum Awards 2025, one of the most rigorous competitions in the US.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3053,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1175,1094],"tags":[1220,1181,1095],"class_list":["post-3052","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-awards-and-recognition","category-news","tag-awards","tag-dos-maderas-rum","tag-williams-humbert"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3052","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3052"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3052\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4172,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3052\/revisions\/4172"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3053"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3052"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3052"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3052"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
