BIRA! South Africa Rum SAWCR 2017 Ex-South African Whisky Cask

Distilled from cane juice, this pot still rum is some of the oldest to come from the Mhoba Distillery at Malalane. It was aged entirely in the lowveld region of Nkomazi, in whisky casks. 56% alcohol.  

Nose: Sweet, cane-y and lush. A little plastic, crisp apples, and some salinity.  

Taste: The sweet grassiness on the nose is right at the forefront. Intense fruitiness develops into notes of cooked pasta, mint, and marshmallow. Tinned apples and
pears. Finishes with a great balance of sweetness and spicy oak. Opulent and inviting. - Robert T. Salmon
