Abraham Bowman Virginia Limited Edition Rum Finished, 50%

Somewhat aggressive on the nose at first, throwing off aromas of bitter citrus, dried strawberries, and a touch of old leather. The palate offers lemon, strawberry jam, and dark chocolate spiced with black pepper, while water brings out balanced sweetness and more jammy strawberry and raspberry notes, along with hints of vanilla cream and cinnamon spice. The finish is slightly taut, but offers hints of vanilla sweetness and spice. Well-textured and well-balanced overall.
