Tasting Notes
This Habitation St Etienne VSOP rum is aged in Bourbon oak casks and in French oak casks on the beautiful plantation of Saint Etienne in Central Martinique. This process confers this exceptional rum a Creole flavor and a spicy, aromatic palate. The nose is rich with candied fruit: apricot, peach, cantaloupe, followed by notes of grilled almonds and caramel with buttered coffee and clove. The taste is superb and enhances the nose: a broad, warm attack, admirably envelopes the palate. Its mellow nature and viscosity accentuate the lasting taste of this very old rum.
