Black Tot Rum 46.2% 750ml Finest Caribbean Rum
| Description: | Black Tot Finest Caribbean is inspired by tradition and the motivation to blend delicious rums from around the world. Our Head Blender, Oliver Chilton, has developed a recipe featuring some of the worlds finest rums while creating a new and individual style. With nothing added or taken away, our final blend has been selected for its ability to allow the individual flavours of each rum to shine. Tasting Notes From The Producer Nose The copper-coloured liquid is immediately inviting, with tropical breezes of pineapple, melon and a feast of Caribbean sweets. Thick scents of banana fritters, plantain tarts, overripe mango and crme brle are lifted by fresh honeysuckle blossom and eucalyptus. Palate Rounded and rich, with butter toffee, banana cream, and caramel to start. Gentle cinnamon and allspice build with more fruit baked apples, pineapple cubes, and dried mango joined by coffee, dark chocolate, and black pepper. Finish Chocolatey coffee fades, leaving roasted bananas and a tingle of anise. Recipe Black Tot Finest Caribbean balances the fruity, honeyed notes of Barbadian rum, the full-bodied elements of Guyanese rum and the intense, funkiness of Jamaican rum, while allowing each of these individual styles to shine. Below you will see the breakdown of our blend composition in percentage terms. We put enormous value on transparency, and so we are delighted to share our recipe with you. Barbados The birthplace of molasses rum in the Caribbean. Barbados is famous for elegant and balanced blends of pot & column still rum, with notes of tropical fruits, vanilla, and coconut. 35% 5 Year Old Barbados Pot / Column Still Guyana Guyana historically has been one of the worlds leading producers of molasses and rum, and it was undoubtedly the heart of the Navy Rum blend. Despite the consolidation of its many distilleries, Guyanas historic stills have survived and continue to make a variety of rich and flavourful rum marques at Demerara Distillers. 40% 3-5 Year Old Guyana Pot / Column Still 20% Unaged Guyana Pot / Column Still Jamaica Classically a heavier style pot-still rum, Jamaican distilleries like Hampden utilise longer fermentation times, as well as wild yeast strains, and the addition of dunder and muck pits in their molasses ferment to create distinctively big, funky flavours. 5% 3 Year Old Jamaica Pot Still Raw Material Molasses Distillation Barbados & Guyana pot/column still and Jamaica pot still Cask Type Ex-bourbon 200 litre white American oak casks Maturation 100% tropically aged in country of origin Chill Filtered No Blend Composition A blend of rums from Barbados, Jamaica and Guyana |
