A 13-year-old aged rum distilled in 2009 by Rum Co. of Fiji in Lautoka from molasses, using a pot still after five days of fermentation. It spent ten years ageing tropically in 200L bourbon casks and three years continentally in 350L Ferrand casks, with a total ageing of 13 years. The release is limited to 25 casks. The rum has esters of 107 g/hL AA, volatile compounds of 342 g/hL AA and a dosage of 3 g/L.
On the nose there are tropical notes of pineapple, sugar cane and banana, with slightly medicinal, woody, spicy and soft smoky notes. The palate is full and round, with fruit, spices and light funk, including smoked pineapple, vanilla and licorice, with a balance between sweet and dry. The finish is long, spicy and slightly smoky, typical of the Fiji pot still style.
