Tiki Lovers Dark Rum 57°: Description and customer reviews

Tiki Lovers Dark Rum is an English-style rum composed of Jamaican pot still rum aged 3-5 years, Barbados rum aged 2-3 years, and a small amount of a blend of column-distilled white rums from Guyana and Trinidad & Tobago.

This is a rum that can be drunk neat or used as a base for premium cocktails.

Nico's tasting notes

The nose immediately gets to the heart of the matter, with a strawberry bubble gum (or is it banana?) side. This power is carried by spices that seem to come from a hot infusion. It's so strong, you'd almost think it was a spiced rum. Vanilla and sugar are present in abundance, lining the nose and serving as a launching pad for the bouquet of varied spices that emerge in all directions. For example, in no particular order: cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, cloves...
The slightly candy-like fruitiness returns as the rum is passed around the rim of the glass. Spices, sugar and vanilla quickly frame this overflow. One senses that the exotic beast of a Jamaican rum present in the blend has been contained. Only its slightly herbal and medicinal side persists. To sum up, for Jamaican rum lovers, this is a lightly spiced Hampden.

On the palate, the attack is dry and, this time, much more reminiscent of Jamaica. In the end, we didn't contain the beast for long. The taste buds are seized by a surge of ripe exotic fruit and a dry, slightly metallic woodiness. Then the very spicy character of the rum takes over, with the fragrant bark of tropical woods.

The finish is fragrant and persistent, with hints of strawberry and exotic stewed fruit.

"Tiki culture being above all that of cocktails, it's not surprising that this rum leans towards the spiced side..."
