Relicario Peated Finish

Rhum vieux affiné dans d anciens fût de whisky tourbé.
Cette affinage lui confère des saveurs surprenantes et vraiment plaisantes. On y retrouve vraiment le bousé et la tourbe d un whisky... Je le répète vraiment surprenant. À rester!

Nothing really wrong with this one but nothing stands out either. Light on the nose with a little vanilla, oak and molasses, some raisin and smoke. On the palate the character has to come from the final stage in Scotland to give it a little kick as all the other flavours are a bit elusive. Nothing in here that seduces you to go for another sip to discover more. One dimensional rum at a pricepoint where I expect a lot more. Easygoing but also very forgettable. Maybe dry but so easy I suspect a little help has been added.

Not that interesting by itself, it has peat flavor from peated whisky barrels from Speyside region. The packaging is high class and bottle is a good boxy chunk of glass. Cool gimmick basically.
