Nine Leaves Angel's Half Futs de Chene Francais is a distinguished Japanese rum that stands out from the crowd. Distilled from unrefined sugar carefully selected by the inimitable Yoshiharu Takeuchi, the distillery's all-round artisan, this rum captures the essence of the Okinawa region, combined with the pristine water from Shiga prefecture. The Nine Leaves Clear Rum, a precursor to this exquisite beverage, was aged in two types of 250-litre, virgin oak, medium-toasted casks. This particular half was nurtured in French oak, imbuing it with captivating notes of vanilla, herbs, spices, and a subtle hint of orange peel.
The rum boasts a shiny, copper hue and opens with a strong but not overwhelming aroma, presenting notes of apple, pear, and peppery herbal undertones, with a touch of whiskey. On the palate, the drink is spicy and fruity, with distinctive barrel and peppery flavors, followed by a smoky finish with traces of tannins, honey, and a warm spiciness. With its complex and round profile, Nine Leaves Angel's Half French Oak Cask is easy to drink yet leaves a lasting impression, making it a splendid choice for both rum and whisky enthusiasts.
