And Salute to Marry Edward and Ken Coppersmith for making this wine — 10 years ago
Baby Alexander is holding a bottle of Habitation Velier Forsyths WP 2005 Single Jamaica Rum in honor of National Rum Day! This was the first bottling of Worthy Park rum since the pot stills were mothballed in 1962, with the site having previously produced the spirit without interruption from 1670. The rum is named after the inventor of the still, one Alexander Forsyth, baby's namesake, who worked as a coppersmith in the 1890s. Interestingly his company, Forsyths, remains a leader in distillation equipment.
This 10 year aged rum is said to have leather, bourbon spice, toffee and smoke. I look forward to verifying these notes when baby Alex gives me permission to crack open his bottle. (And thus the rating is a guess for now too.) — 6 years ago
