Tasting notes
Chris Goodrum (Gauntleys)
A light and elegant nose. Quiet oily and distinctly Agricole in nature with slightly leafy dried fruit, cane syrup, light cinnamon spice, liquorice, earth and creamy wood vanillins. There’s also a crisp grain like botanical note from what I’m presuming is a from a continuous distilled proportion in the blend. Lovely balancing subtle sweetness and floral/ perfumed top notes.
The palate opens gently and subtly. Very oily with immediate dried sultanas and moist fruitcake notes, followed by some light toffee, banana and tropical peach. A Cognac-esque rancio underpins the fruit and it is balanced by the subtle wood vanillins. Like on the nose a herbally/ grain like note appears in the finish and is balanced by the subtle sweetness. Poised and elegant it is a lovely sipping rum.
