The Real McCoy 12 Year Old
The 12 year old Real McCoy rum, matured in heavily charred bourbon barrels. Rich and oak-y, with bundles of Christmas cake, Demerara sugar and pipe tobacco notes. The 'Real McCoy' name is based on the nickname believed to have been given to the spirits sold by Bill McCoy, legendary Prohibition-era smuggler.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Heavy vanilla and brown sugar notes up front, swiftly followed by banana fritters.
Palate
Rich and chocolatey. Fruit esters remain, with a touch of smoke developing on the mid-palate.
Finish
Barrel char and chocolate-coated peanuts.
Winner of 2 spirit awards
