Rum Nation Small Batch Rare Rums Versailles 30 Years 1990-2021 50cl 56,8%Vol

A wonderfully intense and heavy rum from a traditional wooden still. It has a flamboyant nose full of funky esters, country notes and a slightly winey touch inherited from the short finish in a sherry hogshead that previously contained Scotch Whisky. It’s a thick, wild and unruly rum, the edges of which have been smoothed with age, but still quite unpredictable. The long influence of the oak is noticeable in the thick tannins, which nevertheless let the sharp style of the distillate shine.
