The rum is not as ‘candy’ sweet in the mouth as the nose foreshadowed which is a good thing as candied rums can become cloying too quickly. Not that the rum is not sweet, it definitely treads lightly on the sweet side of the fence with flavours of butterscotch and vanilla mixing in with tropical fruit. There are underlying flavours of coconut, and a light grassiness which gives the rum a pleasant complexity. The rum dried my mouth as I sipped, and after a few of those sips I also began to notice hints of mushy banana, very mild licorice and mint flavours.
