Notes

Cask No. 143.4

Coast to coast

Washington, USA

Nosing neat we made an impressive 4,528-mile journey from the Northwest coast of the USA in Seattle to the Northwest coast of England Whitehaven and the story of the Jefferson’s rum, distantly related to US founding father Thomas Jefferson. The aromas were that of cherry cola, burnt brown sugar, molasses and chocolate sponge cake. On the palate toffee, honey, blackcurrant, fudge, bananas and a slightly burned treacle edge in the finish. Remaining in Whitehaven, also the final resting place of Mildred Gale, paternal grandmother of George Washington we got on reduction raisins, cinder toffee and banoffee pie on the nose, while the taste was that of roasted chestnuts coated in powdered sugar. Made with Great Western pale malt.
