Secret Distillery #1 9 Year Old - Batch 1 (That Boutique-y Rum Company)
One of the initial rums from the launch of That Boutique-y Rum Company! This one was produced by an undisclosed distillery in Jamaica, matured for 9 years before being bottled by those Boutique-y folks. The label is a visualisation of the rum's production, featuring sugarcane (that's the big one), demerara sugar, molasses, unaged rum and aged rum.
Batch 1 is a release of 426 bottles.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
An authentic tropical fruit salvo is enriched by Jamaican ginger cake and spiced molasses. Thick treacle trickles through red cola cubes, dried banana and buttery shortbread. A touch of marzipan lingers.
Palate
Juicy pineapple breaks through slightly earthy elements and vanilla pod. Caramel-coated charred oak forms the backdrop. Dark, syrupy and rich spice percolates throughout.
Finish
Tropical fruit and vanilla brilliance persists among a hot flush of sweet spearmint.
Overall
The unmistakable Jamaica pot still rum character and depth of flavour is no secret in this delicious dram.
