1731 Rum Dominican Republic 5 Years (70cl, 46%)

An authentic rum from the Dominican Republic, part of the 1731 Fine & Rare Rum series, made without added sugar or artificial flavours. Produced from molasses and distilled in column stills, it matures for five years in American oak casks under tropical conditions. The ageing gives a balance of sweetness, fruit and fine spice. The nose shows vanilla, caramel and light fruits with a light floral note and discreet oak; the palate is soft and harmonious with toffee, honey, tropical fruits and mild spice, and the finish is medium-long, soft and pleasantly sweet with vanilla and wood.
