A 28 year old island blend on a molasses base, matured in ex-bourbon wood and kept gentle at 45%, offering caramel, vanilla and stewed dark fruit with a whiff of woodsmoke and a soft, nutty, creme brulee finish.
Description
Davidsen's XO 28 Red Label, bottled by Oskar Davidsen and Co, gathers molasses rum from more than one origin into a long-aged blend that wears its 28 years lightly at 45%. The aim is roundness and easy drinking rather than power, a relaxed evening pour for anyone who likes their aged rum smooth and unhurried.
The nose opens on caramel and orchard and dried fruit with a dusting of cinnamon. On the palate it stays full but soft, with vanilla, a touch of smoke and plummy dark fruit carried by ex-bourbon oak, before a woody, nutty, creme brulee finish. The extra age brings more wood and dried fruit than the younger Davidsen bottlings without sacrificing the gentle, chocolatey house character. Those who enjoy the brand's lighter, sweeter style will find this a natural, more mature extension of it.
