The Depaz 2005 Brut de Fut 14yo is a remarkable limited release rum from the esteemed Depaz distillery in Martinique, with only 485 bottles produced. This exquisite rum was distilled in 2005 using a column still from fresh sugar cane juice and was matured for 14 years before being bottled at cask strength in 2019, boasting an impressive 58.2% ABV. The resulting spirit offers a symphony of complex flavors and aromas that captivate the senses.
On the nose, the rum unveils a vibrant bouquet of citrus, dried fruits, caramel, and woody undertones, enriched with delicate hints of spices and tobacco. The palate is equally enchanting, with a bold and spicy character that includes notes of roasted flavors, nutmeg, leather, and a touch of coffee and nuttiness. The oak influence is prominent yet harmonious, allowing the essence of the cane juice to shine through beautifully. The finish is long-lasting and memorable, featuring roasted and spicy notes alongside hints of clove, fruitiness, and nuttiness.
The rum is fresh and lively, possessing a brandy-like character with dried fruit scents. Despite its strength, the rum remains frank and astringent, showcasing its Martinique origin and the masterful influence of oak. The spices and roasted nuts coalesce into a paste-like consistency with a notable grain. Aeration further enhances the wood and nutty profile, introducing roasted and caramelized pecans and a rich, sticky peanut paste. The overall experience is akin to enjoying a maple syrup infused with cane juice.
