This was an outstanding digestive or evening sipper. Not overly sweet, but very flavourful. Wonderful hints of herbal, ginger, and apple. Very spirit forward, but with no taste overshadowing the other. Definitely going to be a favourite and often visited digestive.

Outstanding indeed. I Just got a bottle of Hamilton 86 Demerara based on your advice to another discerning drinker re black rum a while back. Did not disappoint to say the least. If I might ask what do you recommend for a light charcoal filtered rum?

For my rum I tend toward those with less sugar adulteration. My go to rums for most mixed cocktail is Stade's gold or white. It is from Barbados which forbids sugar adulteration. I use both Stade's Rum Bond No.8 for gold; Stade's Rum Beach Vat No 1 white.

I am a rum purist and do not accept any sugar adulteration. I want the full flavour of the rum. I tend toward rums from Jamaica, Barbados, Martinique, or Haiti.
