The Isautier Louis & Charles Rhum Vieux is a distinguished rum that pays homage to the two brothers who founded the Isautier distillery on the island of Réunion in 1845. This blend is a masterful combination of agricultural rums and traditional molasses rums, aged between 14 and 22 years, resulting in a product that exemplifies craftsmanship and dedication. The distillery, established as the largest of its time, has preserved the expertise of the Isautier brothers through the centuries. The rum's dark color signifies its extensive aging, contributing to a powerful, complex, elegant, and smooth drinking experience. The Isautier Rhum is renowned for its sweet caramel and vanilla notes, complemented by tropical fruity and subtly spicy undertones, which are evident from the first sip to the long, harmonious finish. Balancing both agricultural and molasses rums, this blend showcases the distillery's unique expertise. The aroma of Isautier Louis & Charles Rhum Vieux features hints of citrus (particularly orange), tropical fruits like passion fruit, barbecue smoke, cinnamon, and floral nuances of lavender. On the palate, this rum offers a mildly sweet profile with notes of vanilla, minerals, citrus fruits such as grapefruit, honey, and a hint of spice. The finish is spicy and lingering, with nuances of cinnamon, nutmeg, and citrus peel. This rum’s aroma also has an oxidized wine and nut character, reminiscent of an aperitif. The mature sugarcane flavors blend with stone fruit, oak tannins, and a fresh, green side linking it to the molasses aspect. The airiness allows the cane to express its fruitiness, including ripe, exotic, and dried fruits, along with vibrant citrus notes dusted with white pepper. The Isautier Louis & Charles Rhum Vieux is a testament to the distillery's enduring know-how, being one of the few in the world to adeptly produce both agricultural and industrial rum.
