The Chamarel VSOP Premium Rum is a distinctive spirit crafted in Mauritius, resulting from a unique blend of Pot and Column Still distillation methods. This rum is distilled from sugar cane juice and aged for a minimum of 5 years, resulting in a refined alcohol by volume (ABV) of 41%. The Chamarel Distillery, located on the south-west coast of Mauritius, produces this exceptional rum using estate-grown sugarcane. The distillation process involves a blend of 70% clear distillates from a Column Still and 30% double-distilled rum from a Pot Still, with each rum aged separately for 4 to 6 years in American oak and French oak barrels in the distillery's cellar.
The aroma of this rum is captivating, with a blend of woody, vanilla, caramel, fruity, and tropical fruit notes. On the palate, the attack is not very expressive, but as you keep it on the palate, floral notes of rose and jasmine, as well as something pastry-like, develop. The finish is long and warm, with a pleasant aftertaste.
The Chamarel VSOP is a full-bodied and rich rum, made with care and dedication. The nose is composed of an interesting mix of olive aroma, cooked caramel, sweet spices, and a light touch of pepper. This rum is best enjoyed on its own as a sipping rum, making it an intriguing addition to any rum collection. In summary, the Chamarel VSOP Premium Rum is a unique and distinctive spirit, with a captivating aroma and a bold and memorable flavor profile. Made from estate-grown sugarcane and aged for a minimum of 5 years, this rum is a must-try for any rum enthusiast.

It has a blend of tropical fruit, caramel, and vanilla notes, with a woody, spicy character that evolves into a dry and slightly oily finish.
While the Chamarel VSOP Premium Rum has many admirers who appreciate its unique blend of tropical fruitiness, spicy, and woody notes, some reviewers find it to be somewhat unbalanced and harsh for its age. They note a strong, sharp acidic nose, with the alcohol being quite dominant despite the 41% ABV. Allowing it to air improves the tasting experience, revealing notes of spices, vanilla, and sweet creamy nuances. However, some feel that it lacks the power and complexity expected from a rum of its age. Overall, it is seen as an interesting yet divisive choice for rum enthusiasts.
