Tasting Notes
"The nose reveals a honeyed, fruity and slightly meaty aroma with oak accents. The palate tastes a bit like a watermelon dipped in sugar, with sweet and peppery spices. There's a very alcoholic, acetone finish that overshadows most of the pleasant mellow flavors, begging the question of just how much of the blend contains older rums vs. younger that can't be more than a year if that. Not much of a neat sipper, but throw some fruit juice on it and it's probably fine."
