Tasting note
Produced in the heart of Jamaica, this signature blend combines rums of different styles and ages. The result is a brilliant golden amber colour, complex aromas of sweet fruit, citrus, dried apricots, fresh peach, hints of molasses and oak; these continue onto a full-bodied palate with a soft, subtle finish.
Imported rum from Jamaica. A blend of several types of rum, all aged between five and ten years. Deep, golden amber colour. Aromas of dried fruits, vanilla, brown sugar, molasses and light spice. Full-bodied, medium-sweet with notes of chestnuts, pecans, bananas, butterscotch and brown sugar. Soft, creamy with a mellow finish.
Harvest gold/honey colour with remarkable clarity and brilliance. Subtle scents of brown sugar, light spice, dried fruits and orange peel. Rich flavors of toasted honey wheat bread and refined sugar. Finishes as serenely as it started.
The entry is sweet, with the same fruity notes of banana and orange standing out before giving way to the more sugary taste of the molasses. There is a touch of a vanilla as a result of the time in oak, and the back end has a nice black pepper spice to it. Additional sipping reveals flavors of raisin and nuts at the mid-palate.
