Merser & Co. is the first Rum Blender active in the English capital after over a century, and is a tribute to the great nineteenth-century London tradition.

Uncolored and without added sugar, it is bottled at 43.1%.

TASTING NOTES:

Aroma: A seductive vanilla sweetness, with flares of tropical fruit and a nice toasted wood character.

Palate: Enveloping, with notes of vanilla, even more tropical and almost vinous notes developed during maturation.

Finish: Toasted wood, vanilla and shortcrust pastry sweets.
