The Cadenhead's 1998 Bellevue 16-year-old rum is a stellar offering from the renowned Bellevue Distillery in Guadeloupe, bottled by Cadenhead's in 2014. This exceptional rum boasts an impressive 57.1% ABV and is presented in a 700ml bottle. Bellevue Distillery is well-known for their exquisite rums, and this 16-year-old expression stands out as a prime example of their craftsmanship. On the nose, this rum is a delightful blend of sweet and herbal notes, featuring the inviting aromas of orange, spices, mint, caramel, and a hint of light oak. The fragrance develops further with time, revealing even more complexity in an empty glass after a few hours. The palate is equally compelling, offering a fruity and spicy profile with notes of honey, fresh grass, herbal nuances, and subtle tobacco, all balanced with a light touch of oak. The finish is notably long, leaving a lasting impression of dried fruits, spices, and a delicate oak and tobacco undertone. The overall tasting experience is enriched with layers of leather, thyme, and astringent tea, culminating in a sophisticated rum that is both rich and nuanced. This spirit not only serves as a perfect introduction to the high-quality rums from this batch but also stands as a testament to the exceptional aging potential of Bellevue's creations.
