This is my first ever rum from Beenleigh Distillery, and overall I came away impressed. Tons of fruit and savory spices that are well balanced and play off each other. The fruits are not overly sweet either leaning more into the tart side for me. Good mouthfeel, good flavor, the only real downside to this is the rather short finish, which a few bumps in proof, could help. Overall, this one is well priced that I will have to look into getting a full bottle for myself.
