FRC Knüppel Small Batch Rum (70cl, 70%)

A blended rum from FRC, bringing together high-ester distillates from Australia, Martinique and Jamaica. The selection of these particularly aromatic rums shapes the cross-country blend, as does its high bottling strength of 70% vol. It is released as a small batch in 70cl bottles. Sugar cane and citrus form the aromatic focus, alongside fruit compote, exotic fruits and grassy, delicately floral accents. Despite a sugar-cane-like sweetness on the nose, the rum tastes dry and mineral on the palate. Its pale gold colour comes without added colouring, and it is not chill-filtered. The nose has intense ester notes with grassy freshness, sugar-cane sweetness and lively citrus. The palate shows citrus and sugar cane, dry and powerful, with mineral spice and exotic fruit notes. The finish is long, with peppery spice and lingering citrus.
