Distiller Notes
The expressive bouquet delicately projects acacia honey and passion fruit notes. A few seconds of aeration awakens the scent of confit apricot and fig enhanced by a hint of gingerbread. The flavor has a captivating roundness and sublime sweet notes of dried fruit and Muscat before aromatic orange peel rounds it off beautifully. An extraordinary experience that lovers of unique products will adore.

This unusual rum is matured for nine years in oak barrels, plus another eight months in former Château La Tour Blanche Sauternes casks. The effect is harmonious and subtle. A thick layer of vanilla coats the palate, accented by lighter hints of oak, orange peel, baking spice and golden raisin, finishing with a fiery cayenne sizzle.
Often referred to as a Gold Rum, an Aged Rum is one that has been aged in barrels, often Ex-Bourbon or White Oak before bottling. As the Rum continues to age, it draws more and more color and flavor from the wood, adding both body and complexity to the finished product. Aged Rums can be sipped neat or added to cocktails. They fall somewhere in between White and Dark Rums in terms of their respective strength of flavor.
