2021 Ultimate Spirits Challenge

Appleton Estate Black River Casks 15 Years Old Aged Rum (Jamaica), 43% abv, $64.99, 750 ml

95
Extraordinary,
Ultimate Recommendation

Tasting Note:

Intoxicating bouquet of orange blossom, banana bread, crème brûlée, papaya, Sichuan peppercorn, and high-toned dunderfunk. Elegant and smooth on the palate, with vanilla bean, chocolate covered strawberries, and sweet smoke coming forward before a long, tropical finish dotted with tobacco takes over.
