Ron Larimar Bourbon Cask Finish (70cl, 40%)

A Dominican rum finished in Scotland. It first matures in American oak casks, then in selected first-fill bourbon barrels from Kentucky. The double-matured rum is at least five years old and is bottled at 40% in a 70cl bottle without a gift box. The base is molasses. Ron Larimar is produced for Angus Dundee Distillers, founded in 1950, which also owns the Tomintoul and Glencadam distilleries. The brand name refers to the rare blue Larimar stone found only in the Dominican Republic. The nose opens with vanilla and honey, followed by soft nougat, toasted coconut and a hint of lemon zest. The palate brings milk chocolate, cooked pineapple, vanilla pod, golden raisins and nutmeg. The finish is mild and balanced, with mocha and baking spices.
