Blue Chair Bay White Rum (175cl, 40%)

A Barbados white rum bottled at 40% ABV in a 1.75 litre format. It is a blend of two column still light rums, an aged pot still rum and an aged column still rum, with components mellowed for up to 15 months in bourbon barrels near the Caribbean shore. Distilled from sugar cane molasses using both column and pot stills, it is filtered clear while retaining subtle barrel complexity. The nose opens clean with mild sweetness, golden sugar and light vanilla, then fresh cane, buttery caramel and dried fruit. The palate is soft and slightly buttery, with mashed banana, tropical fruit, marshmallow sweetness, white pepper, mint and licorice. The finish is crisp and brief, with mineral-water dryness, light fruitiness and bread-pudding warmth.
