Review #991; Rum #331: Don Q 2007

Don Q Single Barrel 2007

This rum comes to us from Destileria Serralles in Puerto Rico who have been producing rum for a long time. This rum was aged for 9 years in ex-bourbon casks before being bottled with no additives.

ABV: 40%

Nose: Vanilla, Orange Peel, Black Pepper, slight waffle cone

Palate: Light Mouthfeel, Orange Peel, Black Pepper, Waffle Cone, Vanilla Cream, Chocolate

Finish: Short finish, Orange Peel, Black Pepper, Vanilla Cream, Waffle Cone

Rating: 6/10

This rum is very good; it has good flavors going on even with the 40% abv. I just wish it was just a touch higher; there is so much potential going on here for their stuff. However, I like what they are doing and they have no additives, which is a major thumb up on my book.
