The Monymusk Plantation Special Reserve Rum, crafted by National Rums of Jamaica Limited, is a premium offering from the Monymusk Distillery in Jamaica. This exquisite rum boasts a rich and complex flavor profile, promising to leave a lasting impression on any rum enthusiast. It is the darkest and oldest bottling within the new line of products released in early 2019, presenting a captivating rotgolden to Bernsteinfarben hue. The blend comprises both pot still and column still rums, aged separately for a minimum of ten years in ex-bourbon barrels under the tropical Jamaican climate.
The rums used in this blend undergo a meticulous selection process by the master blender, who handpicks the casks to be married together. The outcome is a high-quality, premium rum with a relatively low alcohol content, making it a delightful sipping experience.

This rum is well-balanced and complex, exuding a certain maturity and wisdom that is immediately apparent. The aroma is a delightful mix of beeswax, dried fruits, melted wood, sweet spices, and a hint of tar. These aromas give way to a sweetness reminiscent of brioche, cream, and soft white wood. The coconut milk and milk jam meld beautifully with banana puree, showcasing the masterful skill in tempering the character of Jamaican rum to create an elegant and gourmet old rum.
