The Mhoba 2017 Antipodes Collection Rare Cask LMDW 60.8% 700ml is an exceptional limited-release rum from the acclaimed Mhoba distillery in South Africa, selected and bottled by La Maison Du Whisky. This unique rum, distilled in 2017 from sugar cane juice, has undergone a meticulous aging process: four years in American Oak ex-Bourbon casks followed by an additional year in French Oak ex-Cape Red Wine casks. This distinctive maturation has resulted in a complex, mature rum with a cask strength ABV of 60.8%. From the moment you open the bottle, the aroma captivates with a melange of solvents, fresh esters, dark fruit, papaya, and salted caramel. The palate is an intricate tapestry of flavors, offering a spicy, zesty, and chewy experience with nuances of dark autumn berries, caramel, chocolate, and spicy oak. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving behind a harmonious blend of woody, chocolate, and honey notes that linger on the palate. Highly praised in the rum community, this release stands as a testament to Mhoba's dedication to quality and innovation in the rum-making process. It's an excellent choice for rum enthusiasts who appreciate a sophisticated, multi-layered drinking experience.
