A delicious sipping rum from Barbados! A blend of rich pot still and elegant column distilled rums which are aged for around 6 years in ex American whiskey casks initially before being re casked in ex Oloroso sherry casks. This secondary maturation brings a wonderful complexity and depth of flavour to this rum. Nose Elegant and enticing. Toffee, vanilla and dried fruits. Palate Rich in flavour yet mellow and subtle. Notes of brown sugar, treacle, raisins and liquorice. Finish Mellow and moreish. Toasty oak and a nuttiness from the sherry. Beautifully balanced. Doorly's rums are crafted in Barbados by R. L.
