The M&G Grogue Velha Tarrafel de Monte Trigo is an exceptional rum from M&G Musica e Grogue, crafted in the village of Tarrafal on the island of Santo Antao, Cape Verde. This rum boasts a 44% alcohol volume and is offered in a 700ml bottle. Cape Verde, a stunning archipelago off the coast of Africa, is known for its rich cultural heritage and this rum is a true testament to that tradition. This unique rum undergoes an ageing process akin to that used in the French Antilles, where the tropical heat enhances its maturation and the oak barrels infuse it with intricate flavors. Aged for 14 months in Bordeaux barrels that previously held Gaillac wine, the M&G Grogue Velha gains a distinctive flavor profile. The result is a smooth, velvety rum with notes of caramel, vanilla, exotic fruits, and toasted wood, as well as a beautiful freshness that balances spicy and vegetal undertones with subtle vinous notes of ripe fruit. As it matures, the rum develops more complex characteristics, offering hints of light tobacco, brioche, and caramel, while still retaining its natural freshness and presence. This intricate aging process ensures that the spirit maintains its vibrant and nuanced flavor, making it a delight for any discerning drinker. With such a complex and multifaceted profile, the M&G Grogue Velha Tarrafel de Monte Trigo stands out as a high-quality rum, perfect for those who appreciate the artistry of fine spirits.
