Review by Decky Hicks Doughty
A fruity nose. Lots of citrus and some tropical notes. A subtle spice in the background to keep things balanced. The palate has a fresh, white wine and nougat mix. It's both light and interesting. The tropical fruit from the nose is still present. The finish has a bit of length and is packed with banana-y fruits that slowly fade. Maybe a touch of rubber. Overall its a nice rum. Great to see something nice coming out of the UK. With more age, I think this would be much better.

#4224 This was not really me. Fruity but would have benefitted from a few more years in the cask.
