History,
For Master Blender’s Reserve 2023 our Master Blender, Oliver Chilton, has looked to create a blend that is closer to the original Navy rum with a heavier mouth feel and rich notes of wood smoke, espresso and cacao. As always, he has looked to put his own spin on the blend, this year including a rum from Grenada, distilled in 1993, to add depth and accentuate a rich orange oil notes from our perpetual reserve.
TASTING NOTES,
NOSE: Cooked blood orange studded with cloves blends with notes of ruby port and cinnamon
PALATE: Initially flavours of liquorice sticks, toffee and cherry drops create a rich and full palate with orange marmalade cutting through.
FINISH: Rum and raisin toffee and chocolate notes linger in the finish with hints at cinnamon and nutmeg.
