A very strong—almost excessive—cinnamon nose, with a hint of clove. Because the cinnamon aroma is so overpowering, the flavor is surprisingly different: more fruity than expected. Notes of orange peel and grapefruit come through, along with hints of nutmeg and clove. This is the perfect rum for someone who enjoys spiced rums but is looking for something more elevated than the “party” offerings from Bacardi or Captain Morgan.
