Velier Japoniani 2009 Karukera 11yo 58.2% 700ml information

Velier Japoniani 2009 Karukera 11-year-old is a remarkable rum that stands out among connoisseurs for its complexity and depth. Distilled in 2009 at the esteemed Karukera distillery in Guadeloupe and bottled in 2020, this limited-edition rum boasts an impressive 58.2% ABV and offers a luxurious tasting experience. With only 312 bottles produced, each sip is a journey through expertly balanced notes of oak wood, caramelized almonds, fresh soil, grapefruits, and white pepper. The nose reveals a typical agricole profile with hints of roasted almonds, fruits, cherry, orange peel, red wine, and a dominant oak aroma.

On the palate, this rum is mild yet complex, presenting flavors of fresh cane, sour cherry, orange peel, sweet cherry, and red wine. The rich, thick texture is complemented by underlying notes of menthol, black grapes, plums, coffee, chocolate, and mocha. The finish is medium-long, characterized by flavors of cinnamon, wood, sugarcane, sour cherry, and grass, eventually giving way to peppermint, burnt wood, tobacco, and a hint of astringency from the coffee and wood. This rum needs some time to fully open up, revealing its well-integrated alcohol and intricate layers of taste.

An outstanding addition to Velier's Japoniani series, the 2009 Karukera 11yo is a testament to the brand's dedication to producing unique and memorable rums. Despite its powerful strength, the rum is praised for its balanced wood, spice, mild sweetness, and heavy fruit notes, creating a harmonious and delightful drinking experience.
