Key characteristics
About this rum
Pyrat Cask 1623 is a dark rum bottled under the Pyrat label, a brand associated with aged Caribbean-style spirits finished to a rich, mature profile. The name references long barrel maturation, and the spirit sits at the premium end of the dark rum category.
Expect dried fruit, toffee and warm spice on the palate, with the smooth, rounded texture that comes from extended oak contact. Serve neat or over a single large ice cube; it works equally well as a considered digestif after a long dinner at anchor.
