Blackadder Monymusk Raw Cask 11 Year Old Rum Tasting Note

Nose: Full dose of vanilla and fruits, most notably impressions would be prunes, honeydew melon, rich and sweet amarena cherries and its syrup, whipped cream, quite some oak, and then all sorts of varnishes and solvents.

Palate: Slightly sweet at first but later exceedingly dry. The integration of the alcohol is superb and the mouthfeel extremely creamy. First impression is the sweetness of the amarena cherry, but that quickly gives way to more bitter notes (orange peel) and oak, which quickly take over without being too dominant. As it develops in the mouth -a hint of blueberry muffins we’ve had with the MBS but that’s only a nuance, more herbal aromas as well as more and more notes from the cask.

Finish: Medium long with lots of wood, orange bitters, something between anise and spearmint as well as other notes from the cask.
