A Fijian single market rum from the South Pacific Distillery, drawn from 2009 and aged fourteen years in ex-bourbon oak before Italian house Samaroli bottled it dry at a measured 45%.
Description
Bottled by the historic Italian house Samaroli, this draws on rum distilled at the South Pacific Distillery in Lautoka, the source behind most Fijian rum and a profile that sits somewhere between the tropical fruit of Jamaica and a cleaner cane character of its own. It was laid down in 2009 and carried fourteen years in ex-bourbon oak.
Samaroli works in a purist register, choosing casks for balance and reducing to a gentle strength rather than chasing power, so at 45% this should read elegant and composed. Expect the warm vanilla and soft spice of long bourbon-cask ageing over a ripe, faintly estery Fijian core, in the unsweetened, continental style the house is known for.
