Blackpool Tasting Notes
Blackpool is a beautifully-crafted British-style Demerara rum. Its audaciously complex and bold profile expertly balances cask notes of dried fruit fruits, exotic island spices, and vanilla bean with an all-natural spiced infusion to complement this exceptionally smooth, remarkably deep rum experience. Blackpool is bottled at 86 proof (43% alc./vol.) to further enhance the rich complexities of the naturally occurring spice notes. A distant lingering of gentle Bourbon oak and steeped tea finish distinguish Blackpool as uniquely crafted by Lemon Hart & Son.
“Rich, full-bodied Demerara rum with outstanding balance and smoothness. Tantalizingly complex flavors of sweet dried fruits overlaid with island spices releasing a profile of freshly ground nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves and ginger. Subtle oak with English toffee and rich vanilla, cocoa and dark roasted coffee complete the experience.
A pleasantly sweet and expressive nose with an intricate array of sultanas, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, vanilla and salted caramel followed by enticing scents of ginger, orange peel spiciness and gentle oak. The finish is everlasting and warming with spice all the way through, smoothed with natural toffee and vanilla. A distant lingering of gentle oak and heavily steeped tea well distinguish this spiced dark rum
as 100% Lemon Hart & Son.”

“Dark mahogany color. Attractive, confected aromas of cherry, butter pecan, and eggnog ice creams, mocha coconut macaroon, vanilla wafer, and tiramisu with brandied orange peel with a satiny, vibrant, off-dry medium-to-full body and a stimulating, medium-long vanilla buttercream, maple syrup on Belgian waffles, spiced nuts, and root beer float finish. A delicious, well-balanced, flavored rum with unique and attractive flavors; try after dinner and as a modifier in craft cocktails.”
