The Chalong Bay Kaffir Lime Rum is a unique and fragrant spirit that is sure to delight the senses. This rum is produced in the Phuket region of Thailand by Chalong Bay Distillery, where it is distilled using a rare and innovative process. During distillation, the alcohol vapors become infused with kaffir lime, a fruit that is native to the islands east of Bali and is known for its intense aroma, reminiscent of lemongrass. The trees used to make this infused rum are grown exclusively in the vicinity of the distillery.
The nose of this rum is characterized by a very pretty cane brandy, which is sweet and slightly peppery. The citrus fruits are soft and mellow, arriving quietly with some grains of brown sugar. With aeration, the citrus fruits develop their full potential, becoming fragrant and colored with violet, pineapple, and especially lychee. The cane and sugar are still present, soft and silky, like a marron glacé.
On the palate, the attack is rather intense, with flavors of rice or lychee alcohol tinged with violets. The sensation is fresh and fruity, like fruit water in syrup. The finish is long and pleasing, with the pretty cane brandy and flavors of lychee.
Overall, the Chalong Bay Kaffir Lime Rum is a unique and flavorful spirit that is sure to please anyone who tries it. Whether you're a fan of rum or simply looking for something new and exciting to try, this rum is sure to deliver.
