The nose is complex, showing blackcurrants, red cherries, cedar wood, lead pencil & cigar box aromas. These develop in the glass & are joined by raspberry, black cherry, spice & a hint of gaminess. On the palate the wine is concentrated but elegant, with fine-grained tannins. These tannins soften even further in the glass, resulting in a luxurious wine with a long aftertaste. ...

A fantastically balanced blend of traditional Coffey & Pot Still rums from Foursquare & Double Retort Pot Still from Hampden Estate. Bottled at a 47% ABV, Veritas has foregone with filtration & additives & instead showcases the quality of the production, letting the quality of the rum shine through. Nose: Buttercream icing, banana cream, Golden Delicious apples & dried pineapple. Fresh & intensely fruity with a background of whipped cream. Spicy & oily notes develop, along with green leaves. Palate: Soft, sweet & fruity. The pineapple from the nose returns, along with freshly sliced pineapple, overripe bananas, white-wine-poached pears, pear drops & white chocolate. Darker notes of warm engines, liquorice, clove & woody spice develops. Finish: Buttery to start, with dark caramel & clove building slowly. Butterscotch & mint linger. A masterclass in blending, bringing together buttery Barbadian rum with hugely fruity Jamaican spirit. The result is a complex spirit that warrants careful exploration. ...
