In the glass the Marauda Steelpan Rum exhibits a medium-gold color. The healthy nose first brings classic Jamaican funk, backed up by the traditional Demerara tones. On the palate, it’s a pleasing combination of ripe banana fruitiness that wrestles with darker oiliness. Despite the dark coloring, the characteristics of long aging aren’t particularly present here. The finish is just a bit on the short side. Would benefit by a bump up to 86 or 90 proof.
