You get a subtle jamaican funk with notes of bananas and pear, after that think blackberries and passionfruit. The barrel ageing gives it a very roasted wood-y and dark chocolate flavour. It finishes with light floral, herbal aniseed-y flavour in the back of your mouth. This is one of my favourites. Simply love at first sight.
