Tasting Notes
We carefully blend our American oak-aged rum with an especially distilled infusion of calamansi (an indigenous fruit, famed for its intense citrus notes) and the wild siling labuyo chilli, to bring a gentle warming, tingling heat, before adding local tropical honey for a final layer of sweet complexity.
Aroma:
Immediately beautifully bright, vibrant and fruity, with swathes of sweet vanilla, toasted sugar and fresh lime peel, alongside fragrant, ripe clementines and exotic flower nectar.
Taste:
Rich, unctuous and sweet, with dark wild honey and milk chocolate notes, infused with orange oil. Then comes a surprising burst of heat from the siling labuyo chilli, which coats the mouth alongside a warming, dry oakiness.
Finish:
A distinct aromatic zestiness lingers in the mouth, alongside bittersweet dark chocolate and cinnamon notes.
