Kate
Nose: Vanilla ice cream and custard creams, then honey and spice: cinnamon, clove, a hint of tobacco and some smoky oak notes.
Palate: Honeyed sweetness, brown sugar, honeycomb and sugared almonds. Oak notes come through and some cigar leaf notes.
Finish: Lingering honey and a hint of tobacco.
Comments: A very accessible rum with a good sweet to spice balance and lovely oak notes. 8.0
Peter
Nose: Gentle vanilla, coffee and hints of dark cacao.
Palate: A little thin onto the palate, with an initial soft, sweet oak flavour that develops into milk chocolate, revealing a little vanilla and fusel oil notes.
Finish: Short, sweet chocolate gives way to hot alcohol and then back to a creamy chocolate.
Comments: Overly light and simple throughout, and a little too ‘confectionary’ for my personal tastes – not particularly rummy. 7.4
