One of the best drinks in the world to my taste. Up with any whiskey I have had the opportunity to taste. Demerara rums are my favorite and this is to me their greatest expression. Amazing complexity that is both layered and evolving. Silky and lingering it is delicious at every check point. Many older rums, to me, are harmed by the taint of oxidation and can't survive the expression of wet leather and heated rubber which that can bring. Like an old Barolo it is amazing the freshness and the sophistication of this drink. The yummy factor on this is one is tremendous, and each sip will take you on a journey.
