Jack-Crap Spirits A.F.D. Honest Choc-Nut Spiced (Single Origin No. 03)

Jack-Crap Spirits builds this Honest Choc-Nut bottling on a Dominican rum from Alcoholes Finos Dominicanos, distilled from sugar cane juice and aged four years in ex-bourbon before being spiced and sweetened. It is presented as a flavoured rum and leans into a peanut-and-chocolate dessert theme rather than aiming at a dry, aged profile.

The cane-juice base and ex-bourbon ageing sit underneath natural choc-nut flavouring at 38%, giving a peanut, milk chocolate and caramel nose and a creamy palate of peanut butter, chocolate and sweetness. This is a sweetened, flavoured rum by design, so it reads rich and dessert-leaning, though the natural flavours are cleanly handled rather than artificial. A treat style pour, well suited to drizzling over ice cream or tiramisu, for drinkers who enjoy a sweet, nutty spiced rum and know to expect sweetness.
