Compagnie des Indes Boulet De Canon no.12 is a distinctive rum, carefully crafted by blending rums from Nicaragua and Panama, and bottled by the esteemed independent bottler, Compagnie des Indes. Released in 2022, this rum is distilled using a Column Still and boasts an ABV of 46%. The rum is aged for 3 to 5 years in oak casks, and then matured for an additional 8 months in peated whisky casks sourced from a renowned distillery on Islay, Scotland. This process imbues the rum with a unique character that marries the complexities of both rum and whisky. On the nose, Boulet De Canon no.12 reveals a rich tapestry of peat, vanilla, whiskey, roasted almonds, pear, and cigar. The flavor profile delivers a harmonious balance of smoky notes, smooth textures, hazelnut, and roasted nuts. The palate is initially greeted with a vegetal taste, accompanied by smoked peat and slight iodine hints, creating a novel intersection with traditional rum flavors. Roasted wood smoke is prominent, while medicinal or vegetal undertones are subtly present. The rum remains fresh and delicately smoked, with a light ash residue and evolving cereal notes. This sugarcane molasses rum, blended and matured by Florent Beuchet, offers delightful honey and hazelnut nuances, making it an intriguing choice for whisky enthusiasts. The limited-edition release is an innovative experiment that merges the characteristics of rum and whisky, promising a tasting experience that is both unique and memorable.

This rum is highly appreciated by whisky fans for its beautiful peat, cigar, and herb/nut notes combined with a slight sharpness and acidity reminiscent of pink pepper and balsamic. It successfully merges honey and hazelnut/vanilla notes from the rum. Although it could have benefited from a more complex base rum, it is a well-executed experiment that whisky lovers, especially those who enjoy single malts like Laphroaig, Caol Ila, or Lagavulin, should try. The rum is extremely smoky with a hint of honey and is overall a commendable creation by Compagnie des Indes.
