A well-aged Antiguan rum, blended from rums aged between 10 and 25 years. This was matured in bourbon barrels.
The nose is thick and full with notes of molasses and Demerara. Some smoke rises with a touch of dry fruit and fudge. The palate is spiced and rich with tropical fruits and buttery toffee apple, oily espresso with a little floral character. The finish is oaked with cigar box and honey.
Such a delicious rum and brought us straight back to being at home in Antigua.
The best rum in the world... Hands down!!!
It is a nice dry rum in comparison with others but with a smooth silky finish.
Drunk this in Antigua on holiday and brought a bottle back £28 at the airport, wish I had bought a case. Lovely stuff, great on its own or with your favourite mixer
Bought in June 2021. Bottle contents were cloudy but MoM assured rest of stock was like that, was probably and end of barrel bottling and taste would not be affected. Finished it but not for me - tasted just a little thin. Back to La Hechicera and XO Plantation for me.
