A single cask rum from Privateer in Ipswich, Massachusetts, aged four years and four months in the coastal climate of Massachusetts. Cask P574 yielded 228 bottles and was bottled at 57% ABV in cask strength. It is neither chill-filtered nor coloured nor sweetened. The base is grade A molasses from Guatemala, fermented for six days at cool temperatures and distilled twice in a pot still. Maturation in fresh American oak gives a pronounced woody, bourbon-like character, with vanilla, coconut and caramel set against dry spice.
Tasting Notes
Sweet vanilla and coconut flakes, then dried tropical fruit and dark caramel, with noticeable oak and caramelised almonds; leather and a delicate pineapple note remain in the background.
Dry and spicy at first, with noticeable but not unpleasant alcohol, then dark red fruits, vanilla and coconut, with charred wood, pepper and cinnamon, and caramel and brown sugar as sweet counterpoints.
Long, combining coconut and chocolate with wood shavings and dark cocoa, with spice and dark sweetness in balance.
