    AKA 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.

    finished in French oak apple brandy casks

Tasting Notes

"The nose is a fruity and spicy mix containing aromas of tart apples, orange and grapefruit peel, clove, nutmeg, cinnamon, and burnt sugar. The light to mid-weight palate reveals notes of stewed apples, pineapples, baking spice, and caramel (so almost like a tart upside down cake!) with a subtle, perfumey note of sandalwood. The finish is a bit on the light side, but the fruit and spice carry it through with a spark of heat. "
