New Grove Very Old Mauritius Solera 25yo is a complex and intriguing rum that has been aged for 25 years using the Solera method. This remarkable blend, composed of rums ranging from 8 to 25 years, is meticulously crafted by the master rum blender to create a legendary nectar. The New Grove brand, originating from Mauritius, has a rich history dating back to its establishment as the Mauritius OK Distillery in 1931. Originally producing fuel during WWII as a substitute for imported petroleum products, the distillery was later renovated to focus on rum production. In 1980, a new distillery was built in Beau Plan and renamed Grays Refinery, marking a significant milestone in the brand's journey. This rum boasts a sweet and enticing aroma with notes of marzipan, cherry wood, raisin, leather, and vanilla. The palate offers a sweet and light experience with nuances of candy peaches, port wine, dry gum, coconut chips, and dried fruits. It is sweet and mild in the mouth, transitioning from floral and fruity to spicy and woody. The finish is dry, slightly bitter with oak notes, and a hint of port flavors, leaving a lingering woody and spicy aftertaste. While some reviewers have mixed opinions about its value for money, considering the complex and diverse tasting experience it offers, the New Grove Very Old Mauritius Solera 25yo remains a unique and intriguing expression of Mauritian rum craftsmanship.
