Fruity, Spicy, and industrial funk ( I see you burning tire) this is another great offering from St. Lucia distillers. The Vendome Pot Still just brings so much heavy industrial notes to the rum that it is hard to not love it. This K&L selection is somehow still available (and at a discounted price). If obtaining their bottlings were easier I would grab some for sure.
