Tasting Notes:
Tasting Notes by Tim F

Nose:  Candied orange peel, brown sugar, buttery oak.  Crystallised ginger, creamy, toasty vanilla and sugared almonds.  Quite fruity, with baked banana, raisins and hints of blackcurrant jelly developing.

Palate:  Medium-bodied.  More than a hint of spices (clove, dried ginger), apple pie, raisins and plenty of citrus (grapefruit, orange) underpinned by the sweet vanilla and baked banana from the nose.

Finish:  Warm and quite lasting, with lively spices and the fruit and vanilla fading slowly.

Comment:  An exuberant golden Demerara, feisty without being over-bearing.  Well-developed for its age. The key here is the balance - this is very easy to drink.

Another rum of high quality from XM one of the smoothest 5 Year old rums I have tasted, great value for money, taste very close to the 10 year old.
