Flor de Caña translated means ‘flower of the cane’ and this rum from Nicaragua certainly reflects its name with fragrant floral and vanilla notes being dominant. The palate is drier than expected with medium weight, and some clove, dark chocolate, and dried fruit flavours on a warming, medium-length finish.
