Killowen Peated Dark Rum

50cl

A first for rum! This peated dark rum was made using the Solera method of cask ageing, first in heavily charred Cabernet Sauvignon casks, followed by ex-Bourbon firkins, then PX Sherry Casks, and finally a single Peated Irish Whiskey cask for 6 months. The result is a viscous, well-balanced, spicy, heavy, and molasses-led flavor that acknowledges its raw ingredients and cask ageing method.

Tasting Notes from Celtic Whiskey Shop and Wines on the Green
Finish A sweet peaty smoke now with citrusy, tropical notes. The end is like trail mix – the ones with dry banana, coconut, and tarty apricot
Tasting Notes from the Producer
Aromas (without water) Strong notes dulse seaweed and mint leaf overcoming a treacle bread background. All the time accompanied by fresh lime zest.
Flavour Sooty smoke note in the background with hard lime travel sweets to the fore, followed by lemon, to treacle, to lemons and back again. A healthy dose of coconut shavings before the finish, the oily fresh kind, not the dry kind.
