Tasting Notes
"There's actually a surprising funkiness and minerality on the nose of this rum that's rarely found in domestic products. On the palate, there's a crisp, young tang that mingles with some sweet vanilla and caramel. On the finish, there's nuts, cotton candy, and some musty spice. This rum is quite complex for its age, and with some additional aging, has potential to be something quite special. "
