Rhum Bally 1991, distilled during a period when the production of Bally rums was entrusted to Simon (from 1987 to 1997), is a true representation of a bygone era. The stronghold of Bally rums, Habitation Lajus, was acquired in 1917 by Jacques Bally, who decided to renovate it and build a distillery on the remains of a small sugar refinery. With the installation of a steam engine and a Creole column designed by Bally himself, he began producing rum which he started vintage dating in 1924. This particular vintage, bottled at an ABV of 45% and presented in a 700ml bottle, showcases the traditional craftsmanship and rich heritage that Bally rums are known for. Medium dark in color, this rum offers a complex array of aromas and flavors that take you on a journey through its rich history.
The J.Bally 1991 is unique because it was distilled during a distinct era (1987 to 1997) when Simon was responsible for production. It reflects the traditional processes and craftsmanship of Jacques Bally, incorporating a steam engine and a Creole column that he personally designed.
The dominant flavors in J.Bally 1991 include fresh wood, light roasted notes, sugarcane, vegetal elements, and light nuts, delivering a complex and balanced taste experience.
Habitation Lajus, the stronghold of Bally rums, was purchased in 1917 by Jacques Bally. He renovated the estate and built a distillery on the remains of a small sugar refinery, contributing to the rich legacy of Bally rums.
I really liked this old Bally. Despite the moderate ABV, it was oily and complex, delivering a robust array of flavors without any loss in intensity. This rum is definitely from another era, showcasing classic Bally markers like sugarcane and wood, making it a must-try for any rum connoisseur.
