La Confrérie du Rhum 2014 Longueteau Guadeloupe #11 is an exquisite white rum meticulously selected by Benoit from the renowned Longueteau distillery in Guadeloupe. Bottled at an impressive 50% ABV and limited to only 1500 bottles, this rum stands out as an exceptional addition to any collection. The 2014 vintage marks the first "Parcellaire" release from Longueteau, with its unique character and clear color offering an exceptionally fruity and fresh experience. The aroma unveils an enticing blend of papayas, mangoes, passion fruits, oranges, and brown sugar, complemented by subtle iodized notes. Upon tasting, one is greeted with a vibrant burst of oranges, blood oranges, mangoes, chilies, and white pepper. The finish lingers elegantly with liquid caramel, almonds, and a refreshing aftertaste. Even though the reviewer is not typically a fan of white rums, this one received high praise with a score of 89. Additionally, there exists a noteworthy aged variation, Longueteau Parcellaire La Confrérie du Rhum 2014-2020, matured in cask #44. This version showcases a golden hue with warmer aromas of caramelized pineapples, citruses, lemon peels, and hints of candle wax. Its taste profile includes notes of lemons, oranges, apples, pears, honey, and roasted flavors, maintaining a "hot & spicy" essence. The mid-long finish is marked by burnt wood, peppermint, and vanilla sugar, although it received a slightly lower score of 86 due to a perceived lack of depth. The unaged and aged versions offer a distinctive contrast, with the fresher and fruitier unaged rum impressing with its vibrant flavors and texture, while the aged version brings warmth and complexity. Overall, the La Confrérie du Rhum selection stands out as a commendable choice among other rums.
