‘Single Barrel Estate’ Rum is a blend of rums up to 12 years of age that are given a secondary barrel ageing after the blending. Tasting note: Deep amber. An intense nose of pickling spices, dill, and cedar. A silky entry leads to a very smooth, oily, dry, medium body with intense Christmas spice, praline, tropical fruit, and oak elements that linger on the finish. An outstandingly complex and flavorful rum with a Cognac-like profile. Score – 96. (The Beverage Testing Institute, www.tastings.com, June 5, 2002) |
