Holey Dollar Rum Overproof Pot Still Rum – Gold Coin

Rum - Dark - Fiji - 3 years old - Overproof 57%+
Medium, bright gold. Similar exotic characters as above
but all in greater profusion. Floral and spice mingle with
earth and dark sugar. All carry into the mouth where all the
flavours are highlighted by the clean, spirited lift. Wonderful
twist of smoke links all the flavours and leads into another,
full powered finish.
