- Description
- This 2016 Jamaican rum from Transcontinental Rum Line spent four years maturing in American oak in Jamaica before a final year aging in Europe, bottled at cask strength at 57.18% ABV. The nose carries dried fruit, black pepper, tobacco, and soft smoke; the palate develops vanilla, sugar cane, orange, and warming baking spices with a persistent finish. The high alcohol and extended aging create a rich, complex spirit suited to contemplative sipping or mixing in bold cocktails.
