Nose: Ripe banana, pineapple, and overripe mango dominate the aroma. Underneath, there's a hint of vanilla and caramel, balanced by a sharp ethanol bite. Funky notes of fermented fruit and wet earth add complexity.
Palate: Intense tropical fruit flavors burst on the tongue. Grilled pineapple and banana bread mix with molasses and brown sugar. The high proof brings a warming spice, reminiscent of cinnamon and nutmeg. Subtle oak tannins provide structure.
Finish: Long and warming. The fruit flavors slowly fade, leaving behind a pleasant mix of baking spices, dark chocolate, and a lingering funk characteristic of Jamaican rum. A slight astringency from the oak balances the sweetness.
