Aroma: Vanilla, chocolate, brown sugar Taste: Vanilla, citrus, sherry Finish: Begins smooth and concludes with a warm, slightly heated sensation.
Truly excellent… a good mix of burn and a smooth conclusion. The sherry is noticeable but doesn't overpower the rum character.
Not as good as the 2002 version.
