- Description
- Nine Leaves' 2018 rum was aged for seven years in ex-Armagnac barrels, a marriage of three casks that builds remarkable complexity. Rich leather and warming spice anchor a profile accented by tropical pineapple and zesty lemon, while the cask influence adds depth without overwhelming the spirit's natural character. The texture is full and warming at 59% ABV. Ideal for those seeking a rum with layers to discover, whether neat or with minimal dilution.
