Taste: Zesty, sharp, poisonous, some chocolate again, limes in every form, green bananas, pineapples, coconut bonbons introduce a very long and tarry finish: Grilled limes, lime zests, nutmeg, fruit gums, long and intense... Only for pirates!

The West Indian Rum Distillery also known as Black Rock Distillery produces a wide range of Medium Body Rums. They run two column- and two pot stills. This is the second of two wonderful casks of Pure Pot Still Rum.

Nose: Apricot kernels, rooibos/vanilla tea, fresh concrete, orange blossoms, lightly caramelised sugar. No surprise it tastes syrupy: With rooibos/vanilla tea again, brown butter, sugar cane and all different kinds of sugar. It’s like tasting sugar without too much sweetness.
