There was a time when tabulae, maps, charts and planispheres reported the unknown which surrounded the little geography we did know. This gave us the awareness of non plus ultra, those boundaries one could not trespass upon. But it also encouraged us to go beyond, to try to comprehend, to explore. Here, too, faced with this rum, which from Australia seems to want to return towards common (though unknown) origins, we rediscover the sensation of once again travelling beyond certain horizons that some of the Scottish ancestors crossed before us, leaving behind the legacy of stories about what they found. And here we have a nose with specks of dust and tropical fruit worthy of any adventurous character. And a mouth with innuendos of tobacco, chocolate and almond. Yes, we know we have just conjured up Indiana Jones in your mind.
