"A complex blend of Copper pot still rums aged for 12 long years, this rum has a characterful nose, showing fruit cake, rum'n'raisin ice cream, cocoa, dried ginger, cinnamon, and clove. Develops baked bananas with fudge sauce and chewy toffee notes alongside vanilla oak and a deeper note of syrupy gingerbread, with hints of orange zest. The palate evokes chocolate sauce and the sweet toffee, fudge and tropical fruit flavours from the nose. Flakes of Terry's Dark Chocolate Orange sprinkled over melted vanilla ice cream. Deep, vivid, and extremely seductive flavours." —producer |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Dark copper mahogany color. Aromas and flavors of spumoni ice cream, mocha custard, and whipped cream with silky, fruity sweet medium-to-full body and a creamy, candied finished. Flavorful but verging on cloying." —Beverage Testing Institute "Fantastic and robust aromas of vanilla, almond toffee, cloves, baked apricot and cigar smoke. Subtle scents of orange zest are also detected. In the mouth it is rich and honeyed with brown sugar, baked apricot, and fresh cinnamon. A long, intensely sweet and elegant finish follows. Excellent, Highly Recommended." —Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2013 (92 points) |
