Gingerbread and pepper cookies, cola cubes, zesty orange, brown sugar.
Hints of clove, cinnamon, and treacle linger.
Instantly recognisable as pumpkin spice, with rum warmth carrying it along deliciously.
The pumpkin spice name is accurate, as this does have the pumpkin spice flavour. It's warm and sweet, with a velvety texture. However, the downside is that the cloves notes are too intense and hide what else might be going on. I think if there was a little less cloves and a little more cinamon, that would be an improvement.
A very smooth rum and the initial taste was lovely but I found the clove overtones too strong and found it hard to pair with a mixer
This is a great rum for those cold autumn nights. It has rich but smooth spiced pumpkin flavour with the warmth if a good rum.
