Tastes

Best en daiquiri: big blast of wood, musty cellar, and bitter herbs on the fore. Bitter orange mallow and lime meringue on the mid with some spice but little heat in the end. I might expect this to work in rum amaro drinks like the Lost Plane or the Black Manhattan. Neat/rocks not so much for me. The cellar dominates with stale wood. Much hotter with indistinct sugar and grass notes.

Tldr: get it for a tropical fruit inflected daiquiri. Neat: Sweet, medium ethanol, pineapple, coconut, some mango on the nose. Taste has the same notes with a lot of sweet vanilla. Definitely sweetened although not painfully so. Daiquiri: quite compelling. Has a strong piña colada inflection. I like it with a light hand on the sugar and medium on the line.

Very smooth with notes of light brown sugar and spice. Superb en daiquiri.

Batch 3525. Just unbelievably incredible stuff. Superbly smooth with absurd richness for the price. Molasses cookies, brown sugar, spice, coffee. Medium but compelling hogo.
