Kelly’s Private Vat Jamaica Rum from the 1980s is a bit of a rare find, but I can give you a general idea of what you might expect from a Jamaican rum of that era.
Jamaican rums are known for their bold, full-bodied flavors and high ester content, which gives them a distinctive, fruity, and sometimes funky profile. Here are some common tasting notes you might find:
Nose: Rich and aromatic with notes of tropical fruits like banana and pineapple, along with hints of molasses, vanilla, and spice.
Palate: Full-bodied and robust, featuring flavors of ripe fruit, caramel, toffee, and a touch of oak. You might also detect some earthy and smoky undertones.
Finish: Long and warming, with lingering notes of spice, fruit, and a hint of sweetness.
These characteristics are typical of Jamaican rums, which are often produced using traditional pot stills and long fermentation processes to develop their complex flavors.
