This extraordinary rum, Chairman's Reserve 2011 Master's Selection RMW 9yo, is a testament to the art of distillation and aging, created with precision at Saint Lucia Distillers. Entirely aged in the tropics, this rum is distilled using a Vendome pot still, producing a unique and intense spirit. Bottled in 2020, and limited to only 253 bottles, it boasts an impressive ABV of 60.9%, making each 700 ml bottle a rare gem. The aromatic profile enchants with notes of orange, vanilla, wood, and a medicinal smokiness. On the palate, it delivers a complex blend of spices, woodiness, vanilla, and medicinal tar, leading to a warm, mentholated finish with astringent undertones. Fans of idiosyncratic rum, as well as drinkers of Amari, Chartreuse, or Mezcal, will find much to appreciate in its distinctive character. This rum exemplifies the quality and sophistication that Chairman's Reserve brings to its offerings, striking a balance between fruity, herbal, and austere notes that never fail to impress. At community tastings, this rum has stood out for its coherent and mature profile, despite its relatively young age of 9 years. Its fantastically balanced nose and great alcohol integration contribute to a smooth and rewarding drinking experience, making it a standout selection amongst Chairman's Reserve's diverse range.
This rum is unique due to its distillation from a Vendome pot still, extended tropical aging, and limited release of only 253 bottles.
