The Chantal Comte Cuvee Caribaea Wooden Box 50.16% 700ml is a distinguished rum offering a unique tasting experience with its vegetal aroma and well-balanced flavor profile. Crafted in the Simon distillery of Martinique, this limited edition rum, with only 1150 bottles available, showcases the skillful blending and dedication of Chantal Comte. The initial scent is dry, characterized by the presence of sugarcane that harmoniously blends with subtle citrus and light earthy tones, accompanied by a slight hint of iodine. The well-integrated alcohol imparts a warm sensation that is not overpowering or unpleasant. Over time, the intensity of the sugarcane lessens, allowing the vegetal and earthy notes to take center stage.
On the palate, the alcohol is even more seamlessly integrated. The high alcohol content is hardly noticeable at first sip but becomes more pronounced as the rum is held in the mouth, revealing a light salty flavor that accentuates the iodine note. The finish is long-lasting, with the vegetal and earthy notes persisting, occasionally disrupted by a faint hint of passion fruit.
Chantal Comte, the visionary behind this rum, suggests serving it chilled or as a ti punch with cod fritters. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this cuvée supports biodiversity research in the Antilles and provides funding for local researchers. This rum is a testament to Chantal Comte's commitment to quality and environmental preservation, making it a unique and memorable addition to any rum collection.
