The Montebello Cuvee Prestige is a 24-year-old rum, meticulously crafted at the Carrere Distillery in Guadeloupe. Distilled in 1982 and bottled in 2006, this exceptional rum has an ABV of 42% and comes in a 700ml bottle. The rum is distilled from sugar cane juice using a Column Still, resulting in a profile that is both elegant and smooth. Aged for 24 years in casks, it offers a complex aroma of dried fruits, wood, vanilla, pastries, baking spices, and a hint of tobacco.
On the palate, Montebello Cuvee Prestige presents a harmonious blend of wood, sweetness, spice, tobacco, and pastries, balancing fruity and spicy elements beautifully. The finish is medium to long, leaving a lasting impression, making this rum an ideal digestive. The deep, exotic Guadeloupean style is characterized by notes of candied fruits, ripe citrus, cooked apples, pears, prunes, liquorice, tobacco, leather, and dried fruit. The texture is fluid with a beautiful interplay of ripe cane, tobacco, leather, and dried fruit. With aeration, more tropical aromas of cider and sweet calvados are revealed.
Distillerie Carrere's Cuvee Prestige has garnered the highest recognition at the Concours General Agricole in 1990, 1991, 1994, 1996, 1998, and 1999, making it a must-try from this esteemed distillery. This rum boasts a remarkable acajou (mahogany) color with a brilliant and transparent appearance.
