Rum of the day 9

Rum Nation was created by (our founding father), Fabio Rossi. He sought out select casks of rum from around the world on his numerous travels and bottled the very first Rum Nation bottles back in 1999. The variety of the different casks he chose and the huge difference in geographical styles required a unique approach to each style of rum – joined under one brand.
This became the cornerstone of our philosophy then and is our philosophy still today – to join a selection of the best rums from different nations under one series – Rum Nation. In this manner, the labelling of the rums does not (necessarily) include the names of the distilleries but instead the area of origin. Additionally, a postal stamp of the same country of origin as the rum is a graphical embellishment that continues throughout our entire range of bottles and labels.

Tasting Notes:
Appearance: Chestnut honey.
Nose: Flowery, delicate, with the typical perfume of cane sugar, and a hint of buttery character. Dates, raisins, orange rind
Palate: Easy, velvety, warm. Sweet but not syrupy, with notes of vanilla, cola, raisins. Crème brûlée, and a final herbal touch like vermouth, with a hint of orange rind, anise and liquorice.
Finish: Getting more tannic and toasted, with the herbal note and some black pepper coming to the fore. Delicate final burst of warmth.
Comment: One of the lightest rums in our selection, with a pleasantly sweet touch in the Latin style but without ever becoming too sugary.
