Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

Cuban rum is light, so I wouldn't swear I'm finding any obvious rumness in this one. Having said that it's a pleasant drop on the nose, light indeed but nicely fragrant, with some heather honey and some nectar, dandelion and other yellow flowers (always rich in sweet nectar). Perhaps a touch of orangey rum, after all. Nice

restaurant Palate

this time the 40% are problematic, they make the whisky thin and drying, with a tea-ish-ness that should have been avoided at 21 years of age. Cold tea, a touch of burnt caramel, some leafiness… Nosedives after just ten seconds, which is regrettable since the core seems to be pleasantly aromatic and well-composed. Nice marmalade and muscovado sugar

timer Finish

short. A shame, again, the core is nice. Notes of pink bananas, great bananas being a very Cuban thing indeed
