This is the first rum that I’ve tasted straight in ages. It has a very interesting meaty smell to it, which apparently is bacon fat according to the bottle. I’m having a hard time picking up scents in the tasting glass, but I might have overwhelmed my smelling senses. It has a nice, fairly light palette, though the tobacco definitely comes through nicely. I believe I pickup the honey midway through the tasting. I’ve rated it a 4 because I like it, but I’m also tasting it in a vacuum without anything to compare it with.
