| TASTING NOTE: The color is a pronounced coppery gold ... Just like the color, the aroma grabs your attention forcefully. Not overwhelmingly strong, but deep and aromatic. it starts dry and then develops a dash of sweeter notes. Complex as I have ever experienced in an aged, molasses based rum, and like it’s baby brother the Cockspur Five Star, unique and unusual in the nose ... The taste is light, dry, and fine. This is definitely a sipping rum meant for a snifter or on the rocks. Mixing this with anything would be a shame, no a crime. (Jonathan M. Forester, www.slashfood.com, Feb. 23. 2008) |
