MT Uncle 12 Year Old Batch 1 That Boutique-y Rum Company

From That Boutique-y Rum Company, comes this pot still rum distilled at Mt Uncle distillery in Australia. Made from cane syrup from the local sugar factory, the liquid was matured in an ex-red wine Hogshead, with a heavy toast, for 12 years. The bottle label shows the lush countryside of Atherton Tableland reimagined as a prehistoric homeland, with Mt Uncle’s founder, Mark Watkins, standing proudly front and centre. Bottled at a massive 64.9% abv.

Expect aromas of pineapple, honeydew melon, nectarine and mango, with a touch of oak and burnt rubber. The palate is sweet and oily, with plum jam and mixed spice. A tannic finish completes this spectacular rum, with rhubarb, green tea and a touch of anise.
