The Secret Treasures 1995 Old Barbados Rum Wird 7yo 42% 700ml is a distinctive offering from the West Indies Rum Distillery (WIRD), known for its enigmatic heritage. Crafted in 1995 and bottled in 2002, this 7-year-old rum showcases the unique characteristics of the Gregg pot still. Although some impostors exist with similar names from 1995 and 1996, this bottle offers an exclusive experience. On the nose, the rum presents a complex bouquet with mild citrus, anise, subtle ginger, and mineral notes, slightly hinting at a Guyanese influence like Port Mourant rather than the usual Foursquare profile. The palate is crisp and well-balanced, featuring anise, vanilla, caramel, butterscotch, and a touch of caramel with some burn. Flavors of plums and raspberries add a fruity dimension, complemented by a dry and slightly bitter edge, reminiscent of glue or solvents, hinting at Foursquare's signature. The finish is dry and bitter with lingering notes of raspberry, smoke, ash, tobacco, and bitter cocoa, leaving a somewhat austere but intriguing aftertaste. While it may not have the depth and body expected from other WIRD releases, the Secret Treasures 1995 Old Barbados Rum Wird still offers a unique tasting journey with its intricate flavor profile.
