The Les Freres de la Cote La Isla Bonita #1 rum is a truly unique and exceptional spirit, born in the Canary Islands from the renowned Aldea distillery. Crafted from 100% organic sugarcane juice, this rum embodies a meticulous and distinctive aging process. Initially, the rum is aged in a solera system at the distillery in French oak casks that previously housed Spanish wine. This is followed by a secondary aging phase in a sherry Oloroso cask. But what sets this rum apart is its dynamic maturation journey – it was loaded onto the Tres Hombres sailing ship for a remarkable 10,000 nautical mile voyage across the Atlantic. During this 7-month journey, the rum underwent a unique aging process influenced by the constant motion and varying climate conditions at sea. Upon returning to land, it was allowed to rest for an additional 10 months before being finally bottled in France in May 2021.
The resultant spirit is a testament to this extraordinary process, delivering a rich and complex flavor profile. On the nose, it begins with sweet notes of caramel, evolving into a deeper, more indulgent experience with hints of spiced chocolate, toasted nuts, and nougat. The palate starts subtly with a touch of caramel and quickly blossoms into a symphony of flavors, including toasted oak, vanilla, and lactic notes. The finish is remarkably long and warming, marked by lingering sweetness and a touch of spice.
Overall, Les Freres de la Cote La Isla Bonita #1 rum is a standout in the world of rum, offering a unique and sophisticated taste experience that is sure to please even the most discerning connoisseurs. Its intricate flavor profile and unparalleled aging process make it a truly remarkable spirit.
