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.
