Flavourful, aromatic and over-proof
- This rum represents the distinctively flavourful and aromatic style that made Jamaica rum famous.
- Containing only heavier-bodied Wedderburn and medium bodied Plummer pot still distillates, famous for notes of exotic fruit and spice and fermented using a local strain of Jamaican yeast, Smith & Cross delivers a tour de force of flavour
- This Traditional Blended Rum is a blend of approximately equal parts Wedderburn and Plummer; the former is aged for less than a year, and the latter is blended from rums that have spent between 18 months and three years in white oak barrels
- The nose is Extremely aromatic, the flavours jump out of the glass at you. Rich tropical fruit, with pineapple and very ripe banana joined by intense darker notes of tobacco, cocoa, clove and cinnamon. Pungent and earthy notes sit behind
- The intensity of the nose is mirrored on the palate, with sugar cane sweetness and treacle bitterness beginning the assault. That's followed by the fruit from the nose and more, all turned up to 11 - banana, prunes, sultanas and orange peel
- Type/Colour: Golden
