Australia (Beenleigh) 17 year 2007 The Rum Trail (48%)

N: Orange oil and rosewater, mild esters akin to pot still DDL, cedar shavings, brown banana and pineapple skin with a very light drizzle of caramel, gasoline

P: similar. Warming for 48%, with plenty of expressed citrus oils and pink, rosy floral extracts, mushy banana, cedar chips underneath it all. Finishes sweeter, on caramel, but a note of gasoline spilled on pavement too. The dirty side only emphasizes how nice and pretty it otherwise is, like a floral Spring dress with grease smeared on it…only, in this case, we’re all very glad the dress is dirty
