The Pere Labat 2010 Single Cask is a limited edition vintage rum hailing from the island of Marie-Galante in Guadeloupe. Distilled in 2010 and bottled in 2018, this 8-year-old rum has been carefully aged in French oak casks, resulting in a spirit that is both powerful and complex, yet smooth and harmonious. With an alcohol content of 45% and a size of 700ml, it offers a robust aroma and taste profile characterized by fruity and sweet notes, complemented by a pleasant spice. The finish is long-lasting, balanced, and full-bodied, making it best enjoyed neat to fully appreciate its unique flavor profile. Produced by the renowned Pere Labat distillery, this rum is crafted using a column still through a slow and continuous process, resulting in a high-quality, character-rich spirit. Unlike most rums made from molasses, the Pere Labat 2010 Single Cask is produced from fermented sugarcane juice, known as Rhum Agricole. This method imparts unique flavors, with notes of dried fruits, chocolate, and coffee. A true representation of the terroir of Marie-Galante, this rum features mature and fruity sugarcane reminiscent of apricots, figs, and mangoes. The mature fiber of the sugarcane is smooth and integrates seamlessly with blond tobacco flavors, followed by a powerful and savory pepper that is not overly spicy. The aroma of this rum is gently vegetal, with hints of green almonds and fresh herbs. It delivers a pleasant pepper seasoning to a very sweet olive tapenade. The well-fermented sugarcane juice is generous, offering notes of mature fruits ranging from citrus to very ripe exotic fruits. Aeration further enhances this rum, bringing out mature and confited sugarcane, and candied lemon zest. A large wave of vanilla from the oak cask wraps around the sugarcane and its spicy notes, culminating in a truly Marie-Galante rum centered on sugarcane and its fruit development over time. With its unique flavor profile and limited availability, the Pere Labat 2010 Single Cask is a must-try for any rum enthusiast.
