Sunset Very Strong Rum, 75cl
Product Description:
Unleash the spirit of the Caribbean with Sunset Very Strong Rum. This powerhouse of a rum, is one of the strongest rums available in the UK at 84.5% ABV, and not for the faint-hearted. Are you brave enough to embark on this intense voyage?
Sunset rum is made on the Caribbean island of St. Vincent and is distilled and bottled by St. Vincent Distillers Limited (SVDL). The distillery was built on the site of a former sugar mill, the Mount Benick Estate. Sunset is distilled from molasses using the traditional column still method.
Because of it's high alcohol strength, we recommend you mix Sunset by diluting with your favourite mixer, or combine it with the tropical fruit flavours in rum punch. However, on the island of St. Vincent the locals enjoy it straight or with ice cold water and a splash of lime. Mixing it with the water and lime allows the flavours to really come out, including cocoa and grilled pineapple.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Powerful aroma with traces of exotic fruits and spices including marzipan, coconut and stem ginger.
- Palate: Intense and robust, a true reflection of its Caribbean origins.
- Finish: Long, warm and lingering, much like a Caribbean sunset with hints of grilled pineapple.
