Very pleasant and subtle rum. Not excessively sweet, just right for my taste. Oak is noticeable in the aroma. In my opinion, the flavor nicely balances the barrel and tropical fruit notes. Good for drinking neat. Excellent in an Old Fashioned!

Amber color. The aroma has vanilla, caramel, dark chocolate, nuts, and a little dried fruit. The taste is vanilla-chocolate, with dried fruits present as well; the sweetness is balanced, and the finish is of medium length.
Nose: Pears, apples, a hint of caramel Palate: Bitter, a hint of pears and caramel Finish: Watery with increasing bitterness
Completely acceptable. Softer with a little water.
