Dunderhead
Rum
Customer Rating
“This is a new favorite rum ! Bought as an ' xmas experiment' and didnt dissapoint, has all the fruity notes of banana, pineapple , sultanas with a dark honeyness. Had to ' Google' ' Esters' which is basicaly the Escence of Rum ! The rich flavour you get from rum truffles or a bar of Bournville ' Old Jamaica'. Its tasty and juicy. I get a slight burn from the first sip then its smooth sailing from there. This is alot better than more expensive rums i have. ”

Description
If you're a fan of rums that are packed to the brim with funky notes of overripe banana, pineapple, sharp oranges and the like, you might be a dunderhead. That's not an insult. It's another way of saying you like the high-ester rums produced in Jamaica using dunder in the fermentation, which imparts those funk-forward flavours. If you do fall into that category, you'll probably rather like this rum which just so happens to share its name! Dunderhead Rum features a blend of Caribbean rums, including a high-ester Jamaican rum packing punchy notes galore. We hope you dunderstand, this is not a particularly dunderstated rum.
We named Dunderhead in our Top 10 Best Rums under £40!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Brown sugar, banana, poached fruit flambé and five-spice. A hint of funky salinity to it underneath the warmth.
Palate
Orange zest and honey, followed by touches of clove, green apple, olive brine and caraway.
Finish
Toffee, cassia, molasses and well integrated grassy funk returning.
Overall
A big, funky rum that still manages to maintain an approachable smoothness.
