Renegade Single Farm Origin: Lower Crater Lake South (Pre-Cask) Rum
Brilliant, crystal clear. The nose reveals the unmistakable scents of pot-still, cane juice Rum with waves of sandalwood, jackfruit, dried flowers, wet clay, mineral, and banana skins. The palate echoes the nose delivering sweet and ultra-funky tropical flavors with accents of dried herbs, mineral, citrus, and bamboo shoots with hints of pepper. Full-bodied and ideally balanced with a great length while deftly managing it's over-proof strength. This may not be everyone's cup of tea but if you carve funky and complex sugar cane spirits this is worth seeking out. $68.99 – 4 Stars

The nose is filled with the scents of dried fruits with caramel, toffee, and brown butter with generous brown baking spices, oak, and toasted walnuts. The palate echoes the nose delivering a rich and surprisingly vibrant fruit and caramel centric core with flanking notes of spice, toffee, oak, and butterscotch. Medium-bodied with rich and complex flavors while being perfectly proportioned and ideally balanced with a bright dose of acidity. $30 – 4 Stars
