Thomas Tew Single Barrel Rum

Like getting punched in the face by Thomas Tew himself

Tasted alongside Havana Club 7 Year and Ron Diplomatico Reserva. Light mahoghany orange. Noticeable vanilla on the nose, along with burnt marshmallow, which continues to the palate, along with orange creamsicle and a woody note. Decent length on the finish, with a woody, though not unpleasant, drying note. My favorite of the three, though this is a bit of an underhanded compliment.

Delicious

50% abv 100 proof from RI bottled in bond reserve

sharp Carmel nose with a touch of seagrass almonds. almost like a mild cognac. body is warm and smooth, slightly oily with molasses, raisins, and green apples.

Slight sweetness and clean finish. Sampled at the Newport Distillery.
