Bombarda Culverin Dark Rum

Bombarda Culverin is the brand's Lost Barrel Blend, a dark Caribbean rum of 5 to 8 years bottled at 43% ABV in a 750ml bottle. At its core is an aged pot still rum from Barbados, with rums from Panama and the Dominican Republic blended around it, all matured in select white oak casks under the tropical sun. It is blended with no added sugar, no caramel colouring and no chill filtration. Golden straw in the glass, it is dry enough to mix cleanly yet easy enough to sip. The name comes from the culverin, a long-range naval gun of the 15th and 16th centuries.

Tasting Notes: Golden straw; caramel, sandalwood and pepper.

Nose: Caramel gelato and sandalwood.

Palate: Lean, bright and dryish, with a light body.

Finish: Brisk baking spices and cracked pepper.

Serve: Neat, or in a Daiquiri, Cuba Libre, Mojito or rum highball.
