Plum Rum Batch No. 2

Category: Flavored Rum

Date Tasted:
Country: USA
Alcohol: 35%
Amber color. Aromas of burnt sugar and caramel corn, hint of stale oil and butter, wax paper, and dried molasses with a glycerous, soft, dry-yet-fruity light body and a tingling, brisk cotton, artificial orange, artificial sugar, peach lip balm, and stale brioche finish. Palate is flabby and harsh, needs acidity and structure. Finish is aimless and dilute. This resolves to a wash of heat and missed on all notes. Very muted, oxidized flavors with slight rancidity.
