Amber color. Aromas and flavors of tonka bean, vanilla and almond custard, and stroopwafel with a satiny, bright, fruity medium-to-full body and a tingling, appealing, long finish revealing notes of toasted marshmallow, tarragon cream, tres leche cake, and honey cake. A rich, wonderfully herbal gold Rum with a distinctive bison grass/tarragon note that will pop in cocktails.

About
Gold Rum
Golden Rums, also known as Amber Rums, are generally medium-bodied and a little sweeter to taste. Most have spent several years aging in oak casks, which give them smooth, mellow palates. They are a little darker than light Rum and a little lighter than Black Rum.
