Oceans 7 years Tasty Rum 40%

Where Mellow settles in softly, Tasty leaps forward lively – two siblings of the same age, but with entirely different temperaments.

Expert description

Oceans 7 Year Tasty is a Rum, blended from fine and robust sugarcane distillates and matured for at least 7 years in white oak casks, bottled at 40%.

Like Mellow, the rum comes from Ocean's Distillery in Spain, but the Tasty expression is composed to highlight a livelier, spicier and more fruit-driven character than the house's smooth standard. This makes it a more direct, outgoing experience appealing to those who prefer a rum with more edge and freshness than the smooth Mellow.

Caramel and dried figs with an oaky finish and a hint of discreet spice.

Did you know?

Tasty and Mellow share the same base of sugarcane distillates and the same 7 years of ageing on white oak, but differ markedly in character because each is composed with its own purpose in mind – a point Ocean's Distillery deliberately uses to demonstrate how much cask selection matters.
