Thought i would throw this here... a good friend gave me a snort when he picked up his bottle... here are some thoughts...
On the nose there is orchard blossoms, golden apples stewed with maple, cinnamon, ginger, cedar and candied orange zest delicately buttressed by vanilla.
The palate is much lighter than i expected from the nosing, but the flavors are intricate iterations of the aroma—presented with flowers, oxidized fruit, dark wood tones, voluptuous baking spices and creamy caramel/vanilla.
The finish clings, showing molasses, maple, soft spice and sumptuous oak nuances.
This is exquisite rum that displays amazing balance, an absolute joy to drink.
