The La Maison du Rhum 2013 Sainte Lucie Batch #5 is an exquisite 9-year-old rum, meticulously distilled in 2013 using a Coffey column with continuous distillation. This premium molasses rum is crafted by the Saint Lucia Distillers, the sole distillery on the enchanting Caribbean island of Saint Lucia, nestled in the Roseau Valley. Released by the esteemed French spirits merchant, La Maison du Rhum, this exclusive batch is limited to just 4,618 bottles, making it a true collector's gem. Aged for nine years in the tropical climate of Saint Lucia, this rum matured in first-fill American white oak barrels that previously held bourbon, as well as former Cognac casks and French barrels. This intricate aging process imparts a rich, reddish-brown hue and a complex array of aromas and flavors. On the nose, you'll be greeted by enticing notes of vanilla, oak, and tropical fruits. The palate reveals a full-bodied texture with flavors of toasty wood, vanilla, toasted coconut milk, blond tobacco, and caramelized nuts. The burnt oak is skillfully balanced by a medley of spices, while the fruity character shines through with hints of peaches, citrus fruits, and vibrant oranges. This single cask rum is a rare and luxurious offering that appeals to both connoisseurs and collectors. The gourmet, toasty woodiness is the undisputed highlight, delivering a chewy texture brimming with vanilla flavors, toasted coconut milk, blond tobacco, and caramelized nuts. Upon aeration, the woody notes become even more pronounced, elegantly complementing the fruity essences introduced at the beginning.
