XXX/Two Single Cask Rum

  • Bottler:

    FineDrams

  • ABV:

    60%

  • Age:

    14 Years

  • Intro:

    This is a single cask rum hailing from Venezuela, distilled at Corporacion Alcoholes Del Caribe S.A. It's 14 years old, bottled at cask strength, with no coloring and filtering. Since I was involved in selecting this for r/rum, it will be unscored. This round was bonkers exciting to do, and you all have seen my initial notes on this cask from the selection phase, but after working through a whole bottle, I wanted to get a full review out there.

  • Nose:

    Powerful brown sugar, toffee, oak structure. Decadent and sweet, tannic and balanced. Papaya, some mango, the fruit plays well with the dessert notes.

  • Taste:

    Thick, syrupy and rich. Powerful and indulgent. Heat is there but in check for the proof. Sweet oak, brown sugar, toffee and pepper. Lovely berry, mango and faint fruits.

  • Finish:

    Long, sweet and rich. The toffee, fruits and tannins balance excellently. Air time has only turned this bottle from great to phenomenal.

  • Overall:

    This bottle is phenomenal, and reminds me every time I have it why it was a must pick. It opened up so well with airtime, as well, which is always a bonus. There are a lot of rough things going down in Venezuela right now, but they know how to make a bonkers good rum.
