A piece of history. Intense and multi-layered on the nose and palate. A real experience!
Yesterday we had a great evening in my friends man-cave. Lots of laughter and wonderful rums. The oak is also dominant in this one though not too heavy to damage the other elements. A great and heavy rum.
A very good rum for the time, we taste especially a moment of history with manufacturing processes different from those of today.
