Rum & Cane Fiji XO South Pacific 46% 700ml is a distinct and refined rum originating from the renowned South Pacific Distillery in Fiji. This single cask expression, aged for six years in a first-fill bourbon barrel, captures the essence of Fijian craftsmanship with its full-bodied and aromatic character. Only 272 bottles of this exclusive rum have been produced, making it a rare and sought-after treasure for connoisseurs. Crafted from molasses and distilled using both column and pot stills, this rum embodies the English-style tradition, with bold, fruity, and complex profiles. The nose reveals an enchanting blend of green tea, waxy pastry, citrus, and a hint of adhesive, intertwined with floral, vanilla, ester, and fresh fruity notes. Upon tasting, it delivers an intense and earthy experience, enriched with creamy and buttery textures, finishing with pronounced vanilla and subtle anise. Faithful to its Fijian roots, the Rum & Cane Fiji XO South Pacific offers an intriguing herbaceous finish with mild bitterness, adding depth and sophistication to the tasting journey. This expression showcases a unique balance of tropical flavors and classic rum elements, making it a versatile addition to any collection. Despite its slightly less intense ABV of 46%, this rum stands out for its refreshing character and nuanced complexity, providing a delightful experience for both casual drinkers and seasoned aficionados.
