The rich and intense style of Jamaica and Barbados, with their notes of plum, banana and vanilla, is enhanced by meticulous blending and further maturation, in France.
The result is a profound structure spiced with notes of cinnamon and clove, whose smoky quality adds texture.
An ideal companion for cocktails.
