Very well rounded and balanced rum. I was worried it would be too woody but the oak is matched with spice, esters, and subtle sweetness without too many tannins. Terrific mouthfeel.
Very shy nose, no texture and very short finish. Dilution simply kills it. What the use to release a 15 years old that got less character than the previous 12?
Some of the most beautiful spirit I’ve tasted. A very relaxed and easy going rum. An ideal evening sipper.
Nice and unagitated, very pleasing, super Jamaica beginner.
