What wizardry is this? The work of GlenAllachie's Master Blender, and all-around spirit industry legend Billy Walker, that's what! Exquisite rum distilled at Jamaica's Clarendon Distillery is transported to the cooler climate of Scotland, to rest up in the warehouses of GlenAllachie. High, medium, and low ester rums are initially matured in a combo of American and French ex-rye, ex-Rioja, and virgin oak casks, before being cleverly blended. The rum was then filled into a cask that previously held GlenAllachie's own peated Scotch whisky, imparting layers of woody smoke and barbecue spice to the ester-rich rum within. We said it was wizardry.
Huge helpings of charred pineapple and banana chips, smoked oak, creamy butterscotch, and distant barbecues.
Mango salsa comes to mind, with smoked chilli and flamed citrus peels. Sticky caramel, earthen vanilla, and bittersweet dark chocolate join.
A prickle of root ginger on the finish, with hearty oak char and rich, funky cane.
