Dark RumAKA Black Rum. Usually aged (but not always) and has additional caramel-coloring added to provide the dark/black color. Some are distilled from blackstrap molasses. No specific type or size barrel required for aging nor is there a set time required for aging in most countries with a few exceptions.
Tasting Notes
"A rich and somewhat deep, Blackwell Rum is a bit like Jamaican rum for beginners. Sweet and not too funky--the nose is full of tar, sugar crystals, orange peel, cocoa, and cigar box. The palate is fruity and easy with dried fruits, walnut, yeast, and hogo with a rubber note on the finish. There is an easy sweetness and a pleasant balance to this deep but not overly-fussy rum."
