The Montebello 2014 Rhum Agricole Cuvee Special is a limited-release rum with an alcohol content of 50% and a volume of 700ml, hailing from the esteemed Carrere Distillery in Basse-Terre, Guadeloupe. Crafted by Montebello, this exceptional rum is produced from a single variety of sugar cane, specifically green cane, which is in danger of disappearing in the Antilles. Distilled in 2014 using sugar cane juice and a traditional copper column still, this unique spirit offers a delightful blend of flavors and aromas that are sure to impress. Upon first whiff, you'll be greeted with a delightful blend of sugarcane, lime, vegetal, citrus, and agricole scents that will transport you straight to the sunshine of the Caribbean. As you take a sip, an earthy undertone harmonizes with sugarcane sweetness, the freshness of green plants, a hint of alcohol warmth, and a raspberry essence that will tickle your palate. The rum is round and slowly spreads its ripe cane flavors, with a slight bitterness of the bark that combines with lime flavors for a slightly drier profile in the mid-palate. As you continue to savor the rum, you'll notice more spicy and floral notes, where the rum becomes lighter and airy. This limited Winch edition is distinguished by its elaborate and recognizable bottle and is made using a traditional copper column still. After distillation, the rum is slowly brewed and reduced to 50%. The fermentation process takes place over a period of just over 24 hours, resulting in a rum that is both sophisticated and well-balanced. The rum opens with a fresh, vegetal, and lemony profile, followed by a little peppery rain that expresses a sweet, candied sugarcane that matures under your nose as it evolves into fruit. As you aerate the rum, the superfluous flavors fade away, leaving you with the natural, herbaceous, and sweet cane juice that flows directly from the still. With only 1250 bottles produced worldwide, this is a rare and exceptional rum that is not to be missed. Whether you're a seasoned rum connoisseur or simply looking to indulge in a quality Guadeloupean rum, the Montebello 2014 Rhum Agricole Cuvee Special is sure to impress.
