Distiller Notes
Cockspur XO is a work of art made with a blend of rums aged in ex-bourbon casks as well as Spanish oloroso sherry casks. The nose is ground is a combination of cinnamon and cloves with background orange peel, vanilla and a bit of tropical fruit. This dark rum is characterized by its dark and rich palate that begins with syrup and dried fruit and then picks up some chocolate and charred oak. The finish is marmalade with hints of nutmeg.
Often referred to as a Gold Rum, an Aged Rum is one that has been aged in barrels, often Ex-Bourbon or White Oak before bottling. As the Rum continues to age, it draws more and more color and flavor from the wood, adding both body and complexity to the finished product. Aged Rums can be sipped neat or added to cocktails. They fall somewhere in between White and Dark Rums in terms of their respective strength of flavor.
