Rum Jamaica 5 YO Rum Nation
Rum Nation's Jamaica 5 YO Rum is the new edition of the classic "pot still" distilled spirit from St. Catherine, Jamaica. This extraordinary rum has spent its entire aging period in the Caribbean, followed by a carefully orchestrated refinement in second-fill Oloroso sherry casks, combined with a small percentage of Pedro Ximenez casks. This intricate barrel blend has seamlessly merged the youthful energy and intense aromas of Jamaican rum with the vinous, fruity, and succulent complexity of sherry casks.
The deep and balsamic aroma reveals notes of camphor, while the characteristic pungent Jamaican aroma, rich in esters, intertwines with accents of cane sugar and vinous fermentations. The palate, true to the aroma, is enriched with resinous notes, pine needles, black pepper, and a subtle hint of flour. Despite a background sweetness, the overall impression is dry and spicy, with nuances of sultana grapes and aged wood.
The finish is an enveloping experience, with lingering warmth and peppery liveliness. The characteristic pungency of Jamaican rums persists on the tongue, providing a final touch of intensity and complexity. Rum Nation's Jamaica 5 YO is a complete sensory journey, a meeting of power and nuances that envelops the palate in a dance of unforgettable flavors.
