Introducing the Compagnie des Indes 2009 Cuba 9-year-old rum, a limited release of only 255 bottles. Distilled in a secret Cuban distillery in 2009 and bottled in 2019, this rum boasts an impressive ABV of 58.7% and comes in a 700ml bottle. Its pale gold color hints at its complex and bold character, which combines the traditional craftsmanship of Cuban rum production with the distinct touch of Compagnie des Indes. The nose is initially pungent with a striking mix of firework, gunpowder, and sulfur, complemented by layers of tobacco, mirabelle plum, pear, and green apple. On the palate, you’ll discover a surprising blend of Werther’s Original caramel, dark chocolate toffee, apricot, and a hint of peanut butter, all enriched by spicy and smoky undertones. Despite its high alcohol content, the rum maintains a sweet and creamy start, leading to a spicy and fruit-laden finish with notes of vanilla, toffee, and licorice. This rum delivers a robust and lingering finish characterized by a medley of spices, cocoa, and mirabelle plum. Though some may find it overly alcoholic and sharp, others appreciate its unique profile and depth, making it a captivating addition to any rum aficionado's collection. Whether sipped neat or mixed into a cocktail like an Old Fashioned with honey and lemon zest, this rum promises a distinctive and memorable tasting experience.
