Kirk and Sweeney RESERVA Dominican Rum 40% Vol. 0,7l

Handcrafted in the Dominican Republic, this rum adheres to the very strict regulations to be called “Dominican Rum”.

The process begins with hand harvested, high quality sugarcane that is processed into grade three Blackstrap Molasses for fermentation and distillation.

The rum is then aged in a variety of American and French oak barrels, with the distiller conducting various steps of dumping, blending and re-barreling through the years.

The final blend is a selection of variously aged rums between 3 and 14 years, painstakingly hand selected, this is indeed a rum well worth pursuing.

This deep mahogany colored rum presents a sweet aroma balanced heavily toward cane honey, with earthy sugar cane undertones, along with a hint of vanilla, luscious toasted oak, caramel and dried fruits.

Initial taste reveals a nectar-sweet quality, leading to a weightier body that’s serious in character but not overbearing.

Light notes of vanilla and wood hit the palate, transforming into an incredibly smooth offering. 
Bold, ripe, and sweet vanilla flavors evolve near the end, providing a smooth, long and luxurious finish.
