- Description
- Distilled in St Lucia in 2007, aged 11 years in ex-bourbon in the Caribbean, then finished two years in French oak within Ferrand's Charente cellars, this high-proof expression (58.9%) opens with oak spice, apples, pineapple, and white pepper. The palate delivers papaya, orange, leather, red berries, pine, and black pepper in a structure that demands respect. The cask finish adds Cognac-influenced complexity to the rum's agricultural foundation. Drink neat to fully appreciate the interplay between tropical maturity and European oak influence.
