Fine elegant woodiness, the nose and palate are similar. This rum has taken on the characteristics of aging in whisky casks with a lot of softness.

8.0/10

Not a bad rum actually especially thinking about the price tag. The nose have nice spices and toasted notes trailed by plums and a bit of chocolate. The palate is well rounded, sweet and spicy at the same time with candied fruit, chocolate and cinnamon with a hint of chocolate and toffee. The finish is medium long and sweet with dried fruit, spices and some toffee.

A discreet rum without too many pretensions. Medium finish with a lychee aroma, which is halfway between grape and mango.
