Rhumb Runner Fernandes Trinidad 18 Year Old Rum Review
With only 237 bottles in the wild, this unicorn release requires some hunting, but the fruits of that labor will more than make up for it. Banana, guava, passion fruit, and mango make up the majority of its core, while subtle spices, pepper, and licorice provide pleasant seasoning. From cask to bottle, nothing is added and nothing is taken away, though that shouldn’t put you off proofing with a few drops of water to unlock its seemingly endless potential.
