The Clement 2015 Cuvee Alligator 5yo rum is an exceptional and unique spirit, aged for five years in a new American oak barrel with a 196-liter capacity. This barrel underwent a special "alligator char" treatment, giving the rum its distinctive alligator skin appearance and allowing it to penetrate deep into the oak, imparting bold and pronounced aromas. The charring process also acts as a natural filter, removing any harsh notes from the white rum.
This rum is a product of the Martinique AOC and was distilled in a creole column at the Simon distillery before being aged in the cellars of Habitation Clement in Le Francois. The "Private Cask" was selected by Robert Peronet, the master blender of the estate, ensuring the highest quality and craftsmanship.
The rum opens with a sweet yet assertive attack, featuring notes of roasted nuts and grilled oak that coat the tongue. These flavors evolve into a rich, flowing caramel, enhanced by the aroma of toasted cane. The oak remains prominent, with a rugged yet polished grain and a hint of toasted nuts and spices such as nutmeg.
This rum is a testament to the expertise and craftsmanship of the master blenders at Habitation Clement and is a must-try for any rum enthusiast.
