Much of the spiced rum category is distinctly sweet; this is the polar opposite. Look for a rich amber hue and complex, enticing aroma marked by vanilla, allspice and brown sugar. By comparison the palate is oaky and drying, rounding into cocoa, anise, cinnamon bark and a roots-y bitterness reminiscent of amaro, finishing with a long, spiced exhale. Mix into tiki drinks with syrups that will add their own sweetness, if desired.
