But the rum needs to match the mood right? Diamond Estate is in one word "exciting"! It's aged for 5 years on St. Croix in oak barrels.. descriptors: moderately sharp smoky bite sugary oak flavor finish is spicy and hot Cruzan has been a growing force in the rum industry during the past few years. http://www.cruzanrums.com/
