This luxurious double-cask rum boasts an inviting mahogany hue and a symphony of layered flavors, making it an esteemed addition to the winter season. Aged in bourbon barrels for up to 5 years and refined for an additional year in the finest Spanish Pedro Ximenez sherry barrels, Bayou XO Mardi Gras Rum acquires a profound mahogany complexion. Its aromatic profile is a delicate dance of floral tones, cedar wood, stone fruit, plum, sandalwood, and dried dark fruit. Multifaceted and complex, hints of orange marmalade and dark stone fruit intertwine with bursts of blackcurrant, prune, and oak, complemented by a subtle sweetness reminiscent of tupelo honey. The finish, enduring and pleasantly dry, unveils notes of honey, black pepper, and sherry.
