Tiki Lovers White Rum (70cl, 50%)

A white rum blending fruit-forward Jamaican rums with matured and fresh Trinidad distillates. Unaged Jamaican pot-still rums from Monymusk and Worthy Park contribute a high ester content and pronounced banana and cooked fruit impressions. Trinidad rum matured for up to five years in heavily charred former Bourbon barrels is charcoal-filtered to remove colour gained during ageing. Unaged Trinidad column-still rum adds a lighter, fresher character. The bottling is at 50% ABV with no colouring and suits classic rum cocktails such as Daiquiri, Piña Colada and Rum & Cola. The nose is light and sweet, with pineapple, banana, guava, kiwi and orange, plus a faint vegetal sweetness and a slightly fermented note typical of Jamaican rum. The palate is light-bodied, opening with lime, kiwi and orange before cooked pineapple, then a short, measured warmth. The finish is long, with sour, astringent citrus notes, especially toasted grapefruit.
