Laurent's tasting notes
Its coat is bronze.
On the nose, this is indeed a spiced rum. Spices and licorice are present, but vanilla is even more so. There's also a hint of cherry.
Sweet on the palate. The ever-present spices (clove) are joined this time by orange. Vanilla is also present.
The finish is long on spices and vanilla.
