Interesting one. Would be shocked if this hasn’t touched a former scotch barrel. The nose has coffee and wood in spades, with a backbone is light peat and spice. The mouth brings an explosion of caramel and some light fruits before folding into a browsing spice fest with some more scotch and peat influence that becomes more prevalent over time. It’s a rum for scotch lovers and I don’t quite love it

Thick and syrupy rum. Pretty sweet aftertaste. But also dry and bitter. Coffee and cocoa powder. Intense and big. Warm. This is the sort of rum you need to be in te mood for. If you are...you will love it. Good pick from Cadenheads

Venezuela 

Avg Rating 7.3/10 over 320 Rums

Venezuela is South America's great rum nation, home to Diplomatico and Santa Teresa, and to one of the strictest aging laws in the world: a minimum of two years, matched only by Cuba. Built from molasses and cane honey, distilled on pot stills and batch kettles, then aged long in solera systems, Venezuelan rum is soft, rich and dessert-like, sometimes openly sweetened, and made in a country whose economy has collapsed around it.
