A Mesccia Blended Rum Vieux (70cl, 49%)

A blended aged rum from Monaco, bottled at 49% in a 70cl bottle. It brings together rums from different world regions and is matured in former vermouth casks, some of which previously held Barolo. The first batch spent just under a year in casks that had held vermouth from Bordiga and Del Professore. The aroma combines herbal notes with acacia honey, ripe apricot, orange peel and mild spices, with a fine bitterness in the finish reminiscent of vermouth.
