Experience the unique allure of Luisita 2015 Tarlac Barrel #2183, a 7-year-old rum that hails from the Tarlac Distillery in the Philippines. This distinctive spirit, bottled in 2022, is a rare treasure with only 180 bottles produced. Crafted with an ABV of 58.8%, this rum encapsulates a rich tapestry of flavors and aromas that make it stand out among its peers. The spirit’s journey in a bourbon barrel imparts a wild, funky, and fruity character reminiscent of a bolder cousin from Jamaica, surprising enthusiasts with its tropical flair and complexity. The Luisita brand has once again delivered a niche rum that captures the Philippine essence while pushing the boundaries of traditional rum-making.
Its unique combination of funky and fruity distillate aged in a bourbon barrel creates a complex profile, unexpected from a rum produced in the Philippines. The limited production run of only 180 bottles also adds to its exclusivity.
The 7 years of aging in a bourbon barrel enhance the rum’s natural flavors, imparting notes of vanilla, chocolate, and tropical fruits, while also introducing a spicy and woody complexity.
Expect rich aromas of cinnamon, vanilla, and woodiness with nutty and fruity undertones. The taste profile includes sweet vanilla, chocolate, caramel, roasted notes, and tropical fruits, finishing with a lingering sweetness and hints of dark chocolate and wood.
As a seasoned connoisseur, I find Luisita 2015 Tarlac Barrel #2183 to be an exceptional addition to any rum collection. Its rich, layered profile and the intriguing mix of tropical and spicy notes make it a standout, especially for those who appreciate the bold, wild characteristics reminiscent of Jamaican rums. This niche rum not only surprises with its origin but also impresses with its depth and sophistication. A delightful journey for the palate, enhanced by its limited availability.
