The Bologne Rhum Blanc La Batterie Premium Limited Edition 2019 is a high-proof, single estate rum from the picturesque region of Guadeloupe. This unique white rum is crafted exclusively from sugarcane harvested from a specific plot of land on the Domaine de Bologne plantation, known as the La Batterie plot. The terroir character of this rum is evident, as it is made solely from sugarcane grown on this distinct plot, providing a true sense of place and authenticity. This premium quality, overproof rum boasts an ABV of 58.6% and is presented in a 700ml bottle. With only 3,000 bottles produced, it is a highly coveted limited edition, following the success of the Cuvee La Coulisse. Suitable for both novices and connoisseurs, the Bologne Rhum Blanc La Batterie embodies an authentic character. The rum offers a full-bodied experience with a peppery root note that contrasts beautifully with tones of licorice, mint, and fennel. It also reveals delicate hints of sugarcane, mandarins, and a whisper of sea salt. As the rum opens up, it unveils additional layers of citrus fruits, pepper, and pine, making it an excellent choice for mixing. Hailing from Basse-Terre, Guadeloupe, the Bologne La Batterie is a rhum agricole—a type of rum made from fresh sugarcane juice rather than molasses. This single parcel, monovarietal rum is crafted from the rare black cane, which, despite its low yield, offers exceptional aromatic potential. Distilled in a copper creole column, the rum is then bottled at 58.6%. The La Batterie plot derives its name from an ancient battery of cannons dating back to the 17th century, remnants of which are still visible today. This plot is situated on volcanic, dry, and sunny terrain, exposed to the interior winds, contributing to the rum's lively, fresh, and generous character. The aroma is captivating, transforming from light, ethereal notes to a cloud of acidic candies, followed by the emergence of sugarcane between two fruits. Upon aeration, the rum's sugarcane notes blossom, developing a fruity and velvety texture while retaining a rustic, earthy quality with dry notes of bagasse and pepper. Named after the eponymous plot, the remains of a 19th-century battery serve as a historical reminder of the area's rich past. This limited edition rum demands patience, as certain cuvees take time to reveal their full potential. The Batterie cuvee succeeds its predecessor, offering the quintessence of black cane in every sip.
