The Penny Blue XO Mauritian Rum Batch #2 is the second full batch produced at the Medine Distillery, situated on the western part of the picturesque island of Mauritius. With a limited release of only 7,000 bottles available globally, this extraordinary rum stands out with its meticulous aging process in casks previously used for maturing whisky, bourbon, and cognac. Each cask, ranging between 5 and 11 years old, has been carefully handpicked by the master blender of the Medine Distillery in collaboration with a whisky expert from Berry Bros & Rudd, resulting in a well-balanced and refined rum.
The Penny Blue Batch #2 boasts a mesmerizing dark amber color with golden reflections. On the nose, it reveals enchanting aromas of tropical fruits complemented by hints of eucalyptus, candied orange, and exotic spices. The creamy texture of this rum is notable for its balance and roundness, allowing the rich notes of caramel and orange zest to shine through.
This unique and rare rum is a true gem for collectors and rum enthusiasts alike. Its complex and well-rounded flavor profile, derived from its aging process in ex-whisky, bourbon, and cognac casks, is sure to captivate and impress. With its limited availability, the Penny Blue XO Mauritian Rum Batch #2 is a must-try for any serious rum collector.
