TASTING NOTES
Nose:
This is unmistakably a High-Ester Rum! Overripe bananas and mangoes dominate, with an abundance of yellow fruit. There's a hint of green olives leaning towards a glue-like note, for which these rums are so well-known.
Taste:
With 63.1%, you'd expect the alcohol to hit hard, but it's surprisingly gentle. The rum is smooth and even a bit buttery in taste, with the ripe bananas and mangoes coming through again, while tropical fruits like lychees dance on the palate.
Finish:
A medium-length finish with a multitude of ripe fruit. Very subtle notes of fruit yogurt emerge towards the end.
Balance and complexity:
The balance between the nose and the taste is flawless, with the classic high-ester notes taking center stage. The rum gains a surprisingly complex touch from the creaminess, the buttery texture, and the fruit yogurt in the finish. A rum where each sip reveals a new layer to enjoy.
