(46% ABV. From an almost full bottle intitally opened 7-8 months ago) NOSE: Grilled pineapple with a slight acrid touch, lemon & olive brine, green fat olives, Macadamia nuts, petrol and some dried coconut. (89-90p) TASTE: The arrival is briney and tropical. On the mid palate it is dry and fruity with lemon, pineapple and minerality. Medium to medium rich viscosity. (88-89p) FINISH: The finish is saline, with some acidity and slightly astringent, with some tannic pepperiness and a little vanilla. Quite intense and long. (87-88p) OVERALL: A very nice rum; fruity, dry and mineral in a rather unique style. Takes a little water well. TOTAL SCORE 88 (89) points.
