Unaged, double pot distilled in Massachusetts and bottled at 62%ABV. Standard HV bottling. Tasted neat in a glencairn.
In the glass: white
On the nose: a bit tight at first. breaking through with fruits, mostly green and maybe even a little unripe - crisp apple, hints of d'anjou pear and green mango.
Palate: Waves of granny smith apple and pear, as well as their respective eau-de-vies. Some minerality and the slow creep of molasses in the background. Even at this proof, no strong ethanol burn at all.
Finish: Very long. Some apple tart with emerging floral notes as well as those mineral (almost mildly metallic but in a good way) and molasses flavors from the palate that linger and evolve.
Summary: Incredible and surprising. Everything about it screams unaged agricole rhum or maybe a Williams eau-de-vie, but in keeping with the Privateer ethic, this is molasses-based rum and undoctored. A roller coaster!

La nariz es de lima limón. Es bueno para hacer daiquiri.

Rancid burny funk on nose (note i love worthy parks and hampdens, also note i love privateers) but yuck, taste is ok and smooth but then it suddenly dies a changeup of overburn wood and bitterness like being punched in the face without consent.

Being a fan of Privateers aged offerings I thought I’d like this more. Of all the unaged rums I’ve had and flavor profiles sampled this one falls short. It’s still really good, just forgettable. For Velier pricing I’d let this one slide.

Molasses, pot still, unaged, 62%. Very tasty and interesting in that it doesn't have the extreme funk of Jamaican overproof whites or the grassy notes of high proof agricoles. This means that it doesn't have the craziness that some seek in overproof whites, but it stands up well in it's own right.

- vůně jemně nasládlá, lesní jahody a vzdálené ždibek penicilínu
- chuť jemná, nasládlá, 62% velmi příjemných, opět lesní jahoda a trošičku jód či již zmíněný penicilín

Ve vůni je cítit citrusy, grepy. Barva světlejší přece jen je to 3 lety rum. Chuť úžasná po čokoládě, ostruzinach. Závěr dlouhý a prijemny
