The Emperor Sherry Cask Finish Rum is a distinctive blend of pure cane juice rums and molasses rums, crafted by the Emperor Distillery in Mauritius. This exceptional rum is first aged in American oak barrels, once home to bourbon, before undergoing additional maturation in sherry casks. This dual-barrel aging process imparts the rum with a captivating amber-red hue and a complex, unique flavor profile.
On the nose, the Emperor Sherry Cask Finish Rum reveals an enticing bouquet of confit red fruits, including cherries, alongside fresh fruits such as apples, white grape juice, pear juice, and bananas. A playful confectionery character emerges with notes reminiscent of strawberry chewing gum and candy necklace pearls, complemented by subtle undertones of spice, coffee, chocolate, and earthy notes.
The palate is a harmonious blend of tangy and sweet sensations. Molasses and coffee intertwine with the ripe sweetness of bananas, transitioning into a spicy complexity where the molasses reappear as rich liquorice. The finish is both long and fruity, leaving lingering notes of candy and liquorice.
Produced on the island of Mauritius, a rising star in the rum world known for its rich history in sugarcane cultivation and rum production, the Emperor Sherry Cask Finish Rum showcases the island's mastery in blending distillates. By combining sugarcane juice and molasses, the rum achieves a flavor profile marked by fruity and sweet notes, enhanced by the sherry cask's influence of tropical and dried fruits, with a hint of peppery spice.
The rum is initially aged in American oak barrels that previously held bourbon, followed by additional maturation in sherry casks.
The unique blend of pure cane juice and molasses rums, coupled with dual-barrel aging in bourbon and sherry casks, gives it a distinctive flavor profile and amber-red color.

As a reviewer, I find the Emperor Sherry Cask Finish Rum to be an exceptional offering from Mauritius. The meticulous blending of pure cane juice and molasses rums, combined with the unique dual-barrel aging process, results in a beautifully complex and layered rum. The rich, fruity aromas and the balanced interplay of sweetness and spice on the palate make this a must-try for any rum enthusiast.
