Chalong Bay Wild Fermentation Rum is a remarkable and distinctive special edition spirit from the renowned Chalong Bay Distillery located in the picturesque region of Phuket, Thailand. This high-proof rum, boasting an ABV of 49%, is crafted from the pure juice of Thai sugar cane. The juice undergoes a unique wild fermentation process, allowing the naturally present yeasts to develop a rich array of aromas and mirror the local terroir. The distillation process takes place in a copper still similar to those used in Armagnac production, resulting in a spirit that exudes both exotic and sophisticated qualities. The rum's profile is immediately captivating with its blend of vegetal, fruity, and floral notes. It features an enticing bouquet of ripe exotic fruits, various leaves, and aromatic elements. On the nose, it presents a floral bouquet reminiscent of an Agricole, with intense and fresh notes of sugarcane, lime, and lychee, complemented by a delicate hint of tea. On the palate, the rum is smooth and creamy, offering a delightful mix of contrasting flavors such as light lime, naturally sweet banana, and dry undertones. The wild fermentation process contributes to a complex aroma profile, highlighting notes of lime, chestnuts, lemongrass, and mixed herbs, which are echoed throughout the palate. Savory olives, green grass, and sweet caramel notes also make an appearance. The natural sweetness of the cane juice is balanced by rich citrus notes, particularly lime, and delicate lemongrass, creating a seductive and well-rounded spirit. Chalong Bay Wild Fermentation Rum stands as a testament to the distillery's commitment to traditional methods and its dedication to producing high-quality spirits. This exceptional bottling is a must-try for rum enthusiasts and presents a unique alternative to classic Caribbean rums. Whether enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or mixed in cocktails, this rum impresses with its complexity, intensity, and exotic flavors.
