In a garden where avarice cannot tread,
a symphony of tastes, elegantly spread.
Pineapples, mangoes, papayas in bloom,
their exotic whispers dispelling all gloom.
Rose petals, strawberries, an elegant pair,
Enhance the bouquet, like a complex affair.
A journey through flavors, a sensory feast,
where every note's a character, not in the least.
Upon the palate, an explosion so bright,
fruits mingle in a stew, intense with delight.
Thick and potent, yet balanced and pure,
a dance of funky elegance and of endless allure.
It beckons, entices, makes you crave for more,
a taste of paradise from a faraway shore.
Beyond the reach of avarice's cold hand,
this nectar stands proud, bold, and grand.
“I was saying the other day, with regard to Brora and Port Ellen, that these styles of spirits, when housed in moderate and intelligent casks, seem just indestructible, eternal, becoming just a tad more complex year after year, without ever losing their DNA or nearing their end. A bit like a horizon that recedes as you advance...The juice is simply magnificent. I suggest adding water only with great moderation.

“A very old Jamaican rum that has managed to retain its characteristic style without turning into toothpick brandy, as some of the same age, mostly in the tropics, have done.
In short, if you have the means and you like the rums from this island, I can only encourage you to discover this when it becomes available.
