As a full fledged Whiskey/Bourbon drinker for more than 30years, this Rum is truly a masterpiece. Rich, viscous and not overly sweet. Balanced notes of vanilla, molasses, spice and oak on the nose. On the palate it’s cocoa, spice, oak, and caramel. Finish is long and warming but not overpowering. Fantastic pour and should be enjoyed neat (IMO) I enjoy all my whiskey at high and or cask strength so this is right up my alley. Cheers!
