A double-aged Fijian rum finished in bourbon and French oak for a layered and exotic sipping experience.
Description
This Isle of Fiji bottling has been double aged — first and then finished in bourbon and French oak — which imparts rich dried fruit and spice while retaining tropical aromatics. The fusion of cask types adds complexity and silky tannins.
The interplay between exotic fruit and mature oak makes it an expressive bottle for sipping or for cocktails that benefit from nuanced depth.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Exotic fruit and raisin with soft molasses and warm spice.
- Palate: Rich molasses and dried fruit, layered with oak spice and vanilla from the double aging.
- Finish: Smooth, lingering and warmly spiced, with a gentle oak-derived sweetness.
Why This Bottle Stands Out
The double-aging regimen — bourbon then French oak — lends uncommon texture and layered flavours that elevate a tropical rum into something more nuanced and contemplative.
Perfect For
- Neat sipping to appreciate layered cask influence
- Rum-forward cocktails that benefit from oak complexity
- Gifting to enthusiasts who enjoy aged, nuanced spirits
