Tasting Notes:
-
Nose:
The nose opens with a complex bouquet of rich dark fruit—think dried figs, black cherries, and ripe bananas—intertwined with aromas of vanilla, toasted coconut, and a hint of baking spices. There’s also a subtle note of molasses and freshly ground coffee, suggesting the rum’s deep, barrel-aged roots.
-
Palate:
On the palate, the rum is velvety and full-bodied, offering a symphony of flavors. Initially, you'll experience a wave of dark chocolate and brown sugar, followed by layers of ripe tropical fruits like mango and papaya. A touch of toffee and caramel adds sweetness, while the finish is characterized by warming spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of allspice, with a touch of oak that lingers gently.
-
Finish:
The finish is long and satisfying, with a smooth, almost creamy texture. The interplay of wood, spice, and dried fruit creates a beautifully balanced aftertaste, leaving a memorable impression of warmth and complexity.
Ten To One 18-Year Jamaica Reserve Collection Dark Rum is a true masterpiece for rum enthusiasts seeking a deep, multifaceted experience. Whether you're an experienced connoisseur or new to the world of aged rums, this offering delivers a perfect harmony of bold flavors and sophisticated elegance.
