Nose: Leads with lemon zest and cardamom followed by butter cream and vanilla, then a bit of cocoa and pepper
Flavors: Enters with a burst of fruit flavor: banana, pineapple, grapefruit and grapes, followed by a dusty, tannic bitterness with hints of oak. Subsequent sips provide a bit of cinnamon along with black pepper, caramel and treacle
Optimal use: A great base rum for a Cuba Libre, tiki drinks, and other tropical libations
