MacNair's Exploration Rum Jamaica Peated Rum
A blend of red wine, rye, ex-bourbon and virgin oak casks have been used for this unusual but very wonderful rum. This expression has had subtle peat smoke and charred cedar wood run through by expert Billy Walker. This wonderful rum will sit in the glass with a golden barley appearance. The nose has lashings of pineapple, smoked plantains and cinnamon spice, a touch of vanilla, butterscotch and smoked Caribbean jerky. The flavours are bursting with ripe bananas, grapefruit and butterscotch, mango, sugar cane with ginger and vanilla.
Sunset Captain Bligh XO
An XO rum hailing from Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, distilled from molasses using a modern two-column still, and diluted to 87.5% before aging for approximately a decade in first-fill Kentucky bourbon barrels. This rum has garnered numerous gold awards at various rum festivals. The scent profile reveals light caramel, brown sugar, creamy vanilla, coconut milk, and a hint of freshly cut grass. On tasting, the rum presents a predominantly smooth experience with notes of oak and vanilla, though it retains some rugged edges. The aftertaste is dry with hints of coconut flesh. Overall, this rum offers a splendid bourbon barrel-matured profile.
