Appearance: Bright gold.

Nose: Intensely estery but well rounded; rich of dried raisins, cinnamon, a hint of wood and a faintly organic and farmy touch.

Palate: Similar to the nose, with cinnamon and raisins to complement the typical Jamaican funkiness. Not exceedingly sweet, but rich and creamy. Chamomile, aromatic herbs.

Finish: Getting spicier, oakier and drier, with notes of liquorice.

Comment: Intensity and velvety refinement. A muscular but chewy and smooth rum, where the British style is slightly tamed by the Oloroso casks.

Suggested Match: Valrhona Caraibe 66%, a dark and intense but velvety chocolate from the Caribbean, the same area of origin of the rum.
