The aroma is a complex blend of vegetal, lime, and herbal notes, while the flavor profile is rich with floral, sugarcane, peppery, vegetal, and lime nuances. This rum is well-balanced and fresh, offering an enduring persistence that makes for an enjoyable tasting experience with an ideal level of sweetness. It is perfect for a traditional Ti Punch or as a versatile mixer in cocktails.
