How does this rum taste?
The "Insolito Wine Cask" rum from Matusalem distillery in the Dominican Republic offers an intriguing profile with red fruit, vanilla, and floral notes. Distilled from molasses using a column still, it is aged less than 8 years and bottled at 40% ABV. With a limited release of 8,000 bottles, this rum features a wine-like finish with noticeable tannins, making it a distinctive entry among modern, festive-style rums. Despite mixed reviews on its depth, it is praised for its unique wine cask influence and visual appeal, although some find its alcohol presence and short finish as drawbacks. Well-suited for pairing with desserts like dark chocolate, it remains an interesting option for rum enthusiasts exploring diverse profiles.

I tried this one in a chocolate cake today and that works really well with dark chocolate :-)
