Upon first encounter, the rum impresses with its robust concentration, displaying an initial solvent pass that suggests a strong potential to elevate the tasting experience. The toasted woodiness is well-pronounced without being harsh. As the rum aerates, it reveals a dense, well-cooked caramel that envelops nuts with rich, white, and fatty flesh, transitioning into a wave of hazelnut chocolate paste.
The palate is greeted with a vigorous yet balanced entry, followed by a subtle vegetal note. The rum then surprises with its fluidity, initially seeming hurried before immersing the taste buds in a nutty paste and caramelized woodiness, bursting with coconut and vanilla. Throughout the palate, one can detect aromas of cinnamon, elderflower, vanilla, and nutmeg.
This full-bodied rum features a complex flavor profile with hints of black pepper, roasted notes, gingerbread, and sweetness, ending with a refreshing, slightly bitter finish.
