Intro:
This is an independent bottling of rum distilled at Foursquare in Barbados and bottled by Fine Drams after selection by the r/Rum community. It is bottled at cask strength with no coloring or filtering. I'm proud to have sat on the panel for this selection, but as a result, this review will not carry a rating.
-
Nose:
Honey, apples, rich brown sugar. Maple, toffee, strong tannic structure. Faint funk, mild rubber influence.
-
Taste:
Thick and rich, some heat but not punishing. Definitely on the hotter side though. Rich toffee, fudge, caramel, light funk. Bananas, faint mango, some guava and cherry. Vanilla bean, rich.
-
Finish:
Long, rich and growing a hair funkier. Good oak structure. Coffee, toffee, caramel and some nutmeg. More bourbon-y here, less fruity and funky.
-
Overall:
Really delicious dram and I'm still very glad I pushed hard for this to be the selection
