The Rom De Luxe 2013 La Reunion Collectors Series No.7 Cask No.8 is an extraordinary rum with a captivating history and exquisite craftsmanship. Distilled in 2013 using molasses that underwent an extensive fermentation process of approximately 15 days, this rum boasts a 'grand aroma' with a minimum volatile substance content of 500 grams per hectolitre of pure alcohol. The distillation took place in a Savalle copper column, a process that enhances the rum's complex aroma and flavor profile. Post-distillation, this rum was aged for 8 years in American white oak barrels that previously contained red wine, infusing it with a unique and sophisticated flavor. The aging occurred in a continental climate, further enhancing its complexity. This meticulous aging process resulted in a rum of beautiful amber color, exuding a rich and full-bodied flavor profile. Initial notes of toasted wood, vanilla, and sweet spices are evident, thanks to the American oak influence. As the rum aerates, fruity notes reminiscent of undergrowth emerge, hinting at its wine barrel aging. Tannins and roasting flavors create a harmonious balance of sweet and savory flavors, with nuances of black coffee and licorice. As you savor the rum, subtle hints of smoke and copperiness appear, along with more bitter notes of dried nuts, resembling dry stone or grape marc. The overall experience is a testament to the artistry of rum-making, showcasing the influence of terroir and aging techniques. Rom De Luxe, the brand behind this exquisite rum, is known for producing limited edition, high-quality rums. The distillery, kept secret, is renowned for its traditional and innovative rum-making techniques. Notably, the distillery of Saint-Andre produces this rum by allowing the molasses to ferment for nearly 15 days, resulting in a highly aromatic and flavorful spirit. In summary, the Rom De Luxe 2013 La Reunion Collectors Series No.7 Cask No.8 is a complex and exceptional rum that stands as a true collector's item for any rum aficionado. With only 304 bottles available, its unique flavor profile and rich history make it a prized addition to any collection.
