The silver rum bears no resemblance to the harsh, phenol flavor of many others.  It is smooth and mixable while showing the true potential of fine rum… Lightly floral with notes of sweet basil, anise, cotton candy, and a hint of butterscotch culminating in a silky finish.
Their Amber rum bucks the trend of over-sweet, spiciness showing rich flavor and complexity similar to fine Bourbon Whiskey.  This rum is exceptionally smooth and round with waves of orange citrus, sandalwood, leather, cinnamon and spice, and a lingering and silky finish.
