Ouch!
Very strong
On The Rocks: On the nose strong pinapple and citrus with moderate floral and spice with underlying alcohol. Taste has a very strong spice and citrus pineapple flavour with moderate oak and mild alcohol. Finish is long and has a delayed burn in the chest with a mild to moderate spice. This is a delicious and surprising rum that comes on strong and is an amazing sipper. Mixed Pepsi Zero: On the nose Mild pinapple and citrus and spice. Taste has moderate spice and pineapple with pleasant sweetness. Very smooth mixed but has a short finish with no burn. It is a very different rum mixed but a shame to drink mixed.
This was interesting and I’m glad I had a chance to try this. On the nose this was quite intense and was definitely dominated by the sharp alcohol and nail polish notes with the fruit poking out. On the palate it was still intense but delivered a little more on the fruit. Not bad and would try more from them but also not rushing out to buy a bottle at the current prices for sipping. May do better as a mixer although I’m not one to spend what this would cost to integrate into cocktails.
