PALATE: Green olives, aniseed, kiwi fruit, marzipan. 

FINISH: Spiced apples, hints of black pepper, pine needles. 

London Tasting Panel (LTP) 

The nose is really smooth and sweet, like a candy shop, with hints of fresh fruits, some lemon and maybe a little creamy with a hint of caramel. 

Taste is so much bigger than the nose leads us to believe a little oily with some green edges! Wow its a growing palate for sure some ripe fruits like pears and peach with kiwi and a growing spice. 

A great after dinner Rum for sure, not one thing about this rum says its a safe easy going dram its a lot more complicated than that and thank goodness it is. 

Great choice 10/10
