1970's Mount Gay Barbados Eclipse Rum 5cl

Colour: Amber.

Nose: An interesting maltiness, then whiffs of burnt wood, wood smoke, cigar box and dark honey (also beeswax) as well as notes of orange marmalade and tamarind. Gets more and more complex, with more leathery notes and hints of cold tea. Also strawberry ganache.

Mouth: Perfectly concentrated, rich, nutty and minty. Aniseed, eucalyptus drops, sugared mocha, a little salt, bitter oranges and notes of oloroso sherry.

Finish: Long, ‘malty’, liquoricy.
