The Dillon XO 9yo is a premium AOC agricultural rum from the renowned Dillon house, which boasts a rich history dating back to the illustrious Count Arthur Dillon, a general and hero of the American War of Independence. Crafted in the pure Martinique tradition, this exceptional rum undergoes a meticulous aging process of at least nine years in oak barrels, resulting in a deeply rich and complex flavor profile.
Upon the first nosing, the aroma is fresh and fruity, showcasing inviting notes of mirabelle plums, apricots, and candied fruits. As the rum breathes, it reveals a gently spicy profile, complemented by a subtle veil of vanilla and a hint of tannins. On the palate, the Dillon XO 9yo presents a well-balanced experience with a delightful concentration of cane and rich oak, where the candied cane nuances soften the finely peppered wood notes.
The rum is further adorned with roasted nuts, and a velvety green cane juice with a delicate menthol undertone. The long and lingering finish carries a fruity undertone reminiscent of dried fruits. The slow aging process imparts a beautiful amber color and an intricate aroma of vanilla, nutmeg, and linden blossoms.
This rum is a multiple award-winning product, including a prestigious gold medal at the Concours Agricole de Paris. Combining elegance and complexity, it boasts a powerful and charismatic character. Sweet notes of vanilla and honey are perfectly balanced by spicy nuances of cedar and cinnamon.
