Tasting Notes

Nose: A bold and inviting aroma of rich dark molasses, intertwining with classic spiced rum notes of vanilla bean, cinnamon stick, and a hint of allspice. Underlying sweetness of caramel and burnt sugar is present, with a whisper of dried orange peel.

Palate: A surprisingly smooth entry, quickly building to a complex and warming sensation. Dominant flavors of dark molasses and treacle are balanced by a robust spice profile including pronounced vanilla, baking spices like nutmeg and clove, and a peppery heat. Hints of coffee, dark chocolate, and a slight smoky char emerge mid-palate, giving it depth.

Finish: Long and lingering, with a persistent warmth that echoes the spices from the palate. The sweetness of caramel and vanilla gradually fades, leaving a pleasant peppery kick and a final, subtle dry note of charred oak or bitter cocoa.
