Old Monk XXX Rum is a dark rum at 42.8% ABV in a 750ml bottle, made by Mohan Meakin in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, India. The 7-year expression was launched in 1954 and is column-distilled from high-grade Indian sugarcane molasses, matured for a minimum of seven years in charred oak barrels and blended with a light touch of local Indian baking spices. It is darker, spicier and more baking-spice-laced than Caribbean dark rums, with a molasses depth that makes it unmistakably Indian. Nose: dark brown sugar and maple with vanilla, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. Palate: molasses with dry peppery wood spices, cinnamon, clove, tobacco, black pepper, dark brown sugar, baking spices, vanilla, cocoa, cola and black tea. Finish: hints of licorice and walnut with warm wood spice and cinnamon.
