Nose - light molasses, honey, caramel, apple, vanilla cream, banana, nutmeg, clove, oat, floral notes, white pepper, mild to moderate ethanol burn. Taste - sour apple, light molasses, ginger, banana, black pepper, butterscotch, vanilla, grape, floral notes, lemon, clove, peppermint, grass, bitter herbal notes, moderate alcohol bite, finishing medium short with molasses, baking spice, and sour apple flavors. The nose is rather light and spice forward. Caramel, molasses, and banana are present along with some honeyed, spiced apples. The palate sadly drifts into youthful sour territory. Many of the aromas translate to flavors, but with some added citrus, herbal, and minty notes included. The finish is sour and baking spicy, but generally mediocre. Another completely average rum, suitable only for mixing in my opinion. It’s too youthful, light, and sour to be a serviceable sipper. Overall, it’s certainly not the worst rum I’ve tasted, but I don’t see a place for it on my shelf, except as a component in a one-off cocktail I may make in the future.
