The Latitudes O'Reizinho Portugal Aguardente de Cana de Santa Cruz is a unique and exceptional rum produced in Madeira by the renowned O Reizinho distillery, distributed by Latitude Beverage Co. This Agricole rum stands out for its intense, floral, and oily profile, capturing the true essence of unaged Agricole rum. It boasts a fresh, citrusy aroma intertwined with hints of sugarcane, olive, and vegetal notes, making it a complex and delightful spirit. Distilled with a 50% ABV from pure sugar cane juice using traditional Pot Still methods, the process starts with immediate pressing of the cane upon arrival at the distillery during the harvest season, running from March to May. Notably, no water is added during pressing, and fermentation, initiated with baker's yeast, lasts for 3 to 4 days. This produces a cane wine with an alcohol content of around 12%. The distillate, with an average strength of 60-70%, is then allowed to rest in stainless steel tanks before being reduced to 40-50%. On the palate, this rum is perfectly greedy, round, and seductive, with the cane developing brioche-like qualities, hints of yeast, and candied flavors. The interplay of lemon and pepper notes elevates the cane, which becomes tender, diaphanous, and delicately warmed by the sun's first light. A subtle note of steamed artichoke or chestnut adds further complexity. With its natural, fresh profile, this rum showcases very ripe lime pulp, underscored by the generosity and sweetness of the cane. As a silky, vegetal cane brandy, it possesses enough power to leave a lasting impression. The pepper of the cane and a hint of green olive provide a beautiful balance. The Madeira Agricole is a stellar example of how intense, floral, and oily an unaged Agricole rum can be, offering a beautiful length on the palate. Its balance of sweetness, character, power, and perceived sucrosity makes it a delightful discovery and a fantastic choice for crafting Poncha. This rum captures the essence of both French Agricoles and Jamaican white Overproofs, earning high praise from enthusiasts.
