Tasting Notes
Holiday sweets come screaming from the nose. Molasses. Cane. Not like any other rums I've sampled. Highly unique. Distinct.
Aunt Jemima and Mrs Buttersworth having a hot affair off the coast of the British Virgin Islands.
Butterscotch candy, caramel, very smooth.
Smells lovely, like caramel candy and fire. I thought it's taste the same but its much more bland than its smell. Easy to drink.
Marshmallow, maple, coffee liquor and total BUTTERSCOTCH! Good dessert drink, alternative to port would be awesome with some vanilla ice cream.
Butterscotch candies, holy shit. Like hard candy from an old lady's purse.
It actually kind of smells like and Indian restaurant; funky, curry spice on the nose; really smooth on the palate; caramel, butter; I can see why this is so popular.
