Lantenhammer Rumult Signature Cask Selection 2019

Lantenhammer Rumult Signature Cask Selection is a German rum from the Lantenhammer distillery in Bavaria, bottled at 43% under its Rumult brand. As a cask selection it leans on barrel character, a straightforward and approachable take on continental aged rum.

The profile is focused and dark rather than broad. The nose pairs chocolate with a clear woody note, and the palate brings coffee alongside that same oak backbone, keeping things simple and easy. At 43% it drinks smoothly, a gentle, cocoa and coffee tinged sipper without rough edges or high intensity. An unfussy after dinner rum for those who enjoy darker chocolate and coffee notes in a relaxed, undemanding pour, and a tidy example of European cask aged rum.
