Old St. Croix Black Barrel Navy Spiced 70 cl. 40%

Old St. Croix Black Barrel Navy Spiced has been developed in close collaboration between our Master Distiller and experienced bartenders—with one clear purpose: to elevate your cocktails. This spiced blend is based on the same casks as our Navy series and delivers a dark, full-bodied and aromatic flavour profile. As the name suggests, Black Barrel is matured in heavily charred oak barrels. The charred layer reduces tannins and opens up the wood’s pores, creating a softer, rounder and more complex character.

Tasting notes are not an ingredient list, but a subjective experience of how it tastes.

Nose
Mocha, walnuts, charred figs, and lightly toasted oak notes.

Palate
Christmas spices and dark chocolate come together in a deep, rich flavour.

Finish
The mocha character returns and slowly fades away.

Comment
Tastes excellent with Franklin & Sons Ginger Beer in a “Dark & Stormy”, with a couple of lime slices and plenty of ice.
