Official tasting notes.
The nose is waxy with peaks of lacquer. The medicinal and dried fruits notes may evoke the title of “peatiest” rum. The palate is a fiery sensation veering to vanilla, liquorice, mint and spices, such as pink peppercorn and nutmeg.

Description
Here’s a very cool Samaroli rum that was created by our Fijian neighbours at the South Pacific distillery. It’s the third edition of Samaroli’s ‘Pacific Oblivion’ series with the inaugural expression distilled in 2001 and bottled in 2009.
This rum was distilled in 2012 and then filled in to 3 oak barrels for an initial maturation of 2 years before been shipped to Scotland, refilled into 3 once used bourbon casks and left to age for an additional 8 years. The climate of the Fijian archipelago in the Pacific Ocean is ideal for growing sugar cane resulting in a bold and delicious rum.
