This was distilled when Beenleigh was using an older yeast strain whichmakes this a bit unusual in todays market. This one leads with an incredible hit of tropical fruit and fuel with the fruit winning out toward the finish. The mid to late finish brings gorgeous floral notes to the forefront, a transition I hadn’t experienced much before but absolutely loved. Now if I could just convince them to reintroduce that old yeast strain back into the mix because it made some exceptional juice.
An intense, full-bodied rum with a long finish. Each sip is a bomb of flavors ranging from classic caramel through more citric notes such as grapefruit. Rich and intense aftertaste, an excellent product.
