Sensory :

Aromas of molasses, brown sugar, and toasted oak unfold with subtle notes of vanilla bean and dried orange peel. The palate is rounded and warming, delivering layers of caramelized sugar, dark toffee, and baking spices, supported by gentle oak structure. Hints of cocoa and charred wood emerge through the mid-palate, adding dimension and balance. The finish is smooth and lingering, with a maritime suggestion of spice and a touch of sweetness that remains poised rather than cloying. The style bridges traditional rum richness with a clean, modern structure reflective of contemporary American craft distilling.
