Tasted this rum at my recent visit at the Saint Lucia Distillers (SLD) and took a bottle with me back home. This is a release just available in St. Lucia celebrating CARICOM 50th anniversary. For this they explored an unique combination of different barrels just as they did for their new 2011 vintage release with using ex-brandy, ex-red and ex-white wine casks, alongside their traditionally used ex-bourbon casks. According to scents and flavors I believe it could be the same rum but at a higher ABV. It’s made from entirely molasses distilled in 2011 using pot and Coffey column stills. The nose is fruity and full bodied with scents of raisin, banana, pear, lemon and toffee. At the palate it’s full bodied, balanced, sweet, fruity and woody with flavors of strawberry and oak. The finish is long with flavors of apple and coconut.
