Dark Rum

Category: Rum (Aged 3 years or less)

Date Tasted:
Country: Canada

Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of caramel cream, vanilla, caramelized banana on an banana split, and cola gummi candies with a round, lively, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a medium finish imparting suggestions of vanilla, caramel, bananas foster, and cocoa nibs. A very solid and approachable youthful Rum that can sipped alone but will shine in a variety of cocktail applications.

About
Rum (Aged 3 years or less)
Añejo and Age-Dated Rums are aged Rums from different vintages or batches that are mixed together to insure a continuity of flavor in brands of Rum from year to year. Some aged Rums will give age statements stating the youngest Rum in the blend (e.g., 10-year-old Rum contains a blend of Rums that are at least 10 years old). A small number of French island Rums are Vintage Dated.
