FRC - Platypus 7 y.o. Rum - Australia Sherry Cask Rum
Special features: This special edition from FRC, named after the unique Australian platypus, is a small-batch rum that initially aged for five years in ex-bourbon barrels under the Australian sun. It was then refined for two years in selected Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks in Europe. The product, limited to 1500 bottles, elegantly combines tropical and sherry-toned nuances.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Dark fruits and sherry notes meet fine accents of banana and chocolate, rounded off by a spicy oak note.
Palate: Spicy with gentle vanilla, complemented by berry notes, raisins, caramel, and a subtle peppery sharpness.
Finish: Long-lasting with aromas of raisins, sherry, and oak, accompanied by a refreshing menthol-like coolness.
Distillery/Bottler: The Flensburg Rum Company (FRC) is an independent bottler from Northern Germany that specializes in characterful rare rums. For this bottling, FRC collaborated with Beenleigh Artisan Distillers, Australia's oldest registered distillery, whose traditional production methods and climatic conditions shape the flavor profile of the rum.
