Nose: Big influence of the sugarcane, deep, dark, brooding, with a winey hint from the sherry & brandy casks. Palate: Heavy notes of sugarcane, a very rich & estery rum. Intense sweetness, with dates, raisins, honey & chocolate, then becoming more aromatic: medicinal herbs, cinchona, bergamot, black tea & coffee. Finish: More & more spicy, with cinnamon & pepper. The sweetness strikes a perfect balance with the oaky influence. Long, everlasting, chewy & thick.
