The Compagnie Des Indes 2009 Grays Mauritius Bottled for Perola is an exceptional 13-year-old rum, meticulously produced at the eminent Grays Distillery in Mauritius. This limited release, distilled in 2009 from pure sugar cane juice, was aged for an additional 20 months in an Armagnac cask. Bottled in 2022 at a robust cask strength of 53.1% ABV, it brings forth a mesmerizing blend of flavors and aromas. With only 597 bottles available, it stands as a rare gem and a true testament to the artistry of the independent bottler, Compagnie des Indes. The nose reveals an enticing bouquet of Armagnac, luscious peaches, apricot, fresh mint, and a hint of tea. The palate is equally captivating, with layers of Armagnac, peaches, menthol, cocoa, and nuanced barrel flavors. Community reviews highlight its harmonious taste, balanced Armagnac finish, and exceptional value, making it one of the finest Mauritius Grays rums to date. This unique bottling is highly recommended for those seeking a versatile and remarkable rum experience.
