The L'Esprit 2007 Jamaica Single Cask 55.3% 700ml is a unique rum that offers an initial impression reminiscent of whisky. This is not surprising, as Jamaican rums, particularly those of this style, tend to resemble certain fruity and lightly wooded malts. This rum is a perfect example, with the wood now taking on the scent of cereals and even a hint of peat.
On the nose, the rum presents a delightful Jamaican fruit salad, fresh and relatively light. This juicy salad is made with carefully selected, fully ripe fruits, and a generous person has added a touch of maple syrup, which brings balance with its perfectly judged oakiness. There are hints of a more pastry-like quality, with vanilla, roundness, and a hint of just-set sabayon.
With a little air, the banana note becomes more prominent, a distinctly Jamaican banana with its unique resinous, yeasty, and almond notes. The vanilla from the wood and the soft spices lead to a blond tobacco that is rich but always subtle. The rum maintains a perfect balance, taking on an increasingly assertive Worthy Park character, but without going over the top.
This light Jamaican rum flirts with whisky in an intriguing way, moving away from over-the-top exotic stereotypes and offering a refreshing change.
After being distilled in the year of the harvest in 2007, it aged until 2018 when it was bottled without reduction. This is a single cask rum, meaning it comes from a single barrel, and it is cask strength, meaning it is bottled at the same proof as it was when it was put into the barrel. This process results in a robust and intense flavor profile that is sure to impress both rum and whisky lovers alike.

Overall: This rum offers a complex and multifaceted taste profile, with sweet, spicy, and woody notes complemented by hints of fruit and honey.
This powerful rum presents a beautiful nose that is slightly woody and alcoholic, with many spices and delightful touches of vanilla and exotic fruit. On the palate, it is very complex and intense, beginning with spices and transitioning to fruit, with a lovely peppery and spicy touch. A slight vegetal note accompanies the experience, leading to a very long, warm, and spicy finish that remains pleasant. A remarkable success, although there are only 240 bottles available.
