Domaine de Courcelles 1972 Rhum Vieux 47yo 42% 700ml information

The Courcelles Tres Vieux 1972/2019 Rhum is a premium treasure that has spent over 40 years aging in oak barrels, embodying true rarity and sophistication. Distilled in 1972 at the renowned Domaine de Courcelles distillery in Guadeloupe, this exquisite spirit was crafted from freshly pressed and fermented sugarcane juice, rather than molasses, enhancing its scarcity and value. Initially aged for over 20 years in casks before being transferred to oak barrels to limit evaporation and continue its maturation, this rum epitomizes meticulous craftsmanship and patience. The Courcelles Tres Vieux 1972/2019 Rhum tantalizes the senses with a delightful bouquet of tropical fruits, including guava, pineapple, and mango, complemented by a hint of alcohol and spices. The sweet sensation of candied citrus, orange peel, and a touch of caramel also emerges. Upon aeration, the impression of fruit juice is reinforced, with passion fruit adding a tangy and exotic aspect. A deep, leathery character with a hint of iodine is also detectable. Flavors of apricot and verbena leaves bestow this rum with a light and refreshing character. While available in cask strength, the version with a lower, more enjoyable alcohol content is highly recommended. As a limited edition, the Courcelles Tres Vieux 1972/2019 Rhum showcases an incredible array of flavors and aromas that are sure to captivate even the most discerning rum connoisseurs. Enjoy this exquisite sipping rum neat to fully appreciate its complexity and character. This bottle heralds the last release from Domaine de Courcelles before the distillery closed its doors, adding a touch of historical significance to this exceptional spirit.
