Berry Bros & Rudd Dominican Rum (Kirsch Whisky) 2013

Raisin, dried apricot and a salty lick set this apart from the sweet Dominican rums most people know. The Madeira cask adds a spicy, wine-soaked depth over young, fresh oak. At 56.6% the nose can read hot and woody, but the palate turns full and rounded — several tasters were pleasantly surprised. One member called it a genuine advent-calendar find, not the soft candy you'd expect from the DomRep.

The community says
  • Madeira cask depth

Madeira-cask DomRep with raisin and salty depth A pleasant surprise for anyone who pegs Dominican rum as sugary — the Madeira finish brings spice and dried fruit, though the nose runs woody and hot. A couple suspect light sweetening.

7.8/10

Nice solid dom rep with Madeira wine finish. Dried apricots, brine, raisins, sulphur, some honey and popcorn. Alcohol well integrated, Madeira finish binds well and brings an extra complexity.

This bottling was one of the surprises in last year's Advent calendar. Who until now rums from the DomRep alone with bottlings of eg.
