On the nose, the rum opens with a rich bouquet of ripe exotic fruits, such as mango, pineapple, and banana, complemented by the aroma of dark and candied dried fruits.

The woody, mellow tannins are infused with tobacco and mellow exotic fruits, while hints of nuts are hidden behind a slightly oxidized rose syrup.
The finish is long and satisfying, with a slightly agricultural quality, reminiscent of bagasse and lime zest. The exotic waxed wood brings balance and harmony to the rum, resulting in a perfectly balanced and sophisticated drinking experience.
