Tasting Notes
"This smooth sipper has the fresh, herbal flavors of rhum agricole melding with rich burnt caramel, roasted coffee, stewed fruits, vanilla and butterscotch. Considering the rhums used are somewhat young, it has a mature and elegant feel with sharp notes of funk, kind of like an early Adele song. This is fine to sip neat, but would make some truly delicious stirred cocktails."
