A full strength South African pot still rum from MHOBA aged in ex-whisky and then brandy casks, bottled at 64.1% with high ester pineapple and banana over rustic wood, spice and dry herbal notes, a vegetal funk bomb best taken neat.
Description
MHOBA Skukuza Confluence is a single cask rum from the South African distillery MHOBA, known for its high ester pot still spirit that often draws comparison to Jamaican funk. Bottled at a powerful 64.1%, this release passed through an ex-whisky cask and then a brandy cask, adding extra spice and wood to the distillery's already characterful profile.
The aroma is fruity and esterified, with pineapple, banana and citrus over rustic wood, while the palate brings the same ester punch alongside spice, barrel and a dry, vegetal herbal streak. This is a heavy pot still rum at full strength, closer in spirit to the funkiest Jamaican marques than to any smooth Spanish style, and it is built to be sipped slowly and neat. For drinkers who enjoy high ester, full proof rum with a wild, vegetal edge, it delivers plenty of character.
