The Rhum J.M 2006 Armagnac Cask Finish 10yo is an exquisite rum with an alcohol content of 40.8% and a volume of 500ml. This limited edition, with only 551 bottles produced, originates from the renowned J.M Crassous de Medeuil distillery in Martinique. The rum, distilled in 2006 and bottled in 2017, underwent a long maturation of over 10 years in a tropical climate. This was followed by a unique finishing period in a cask that previously held Bas Armagnac from the prestigious Château de [name withheld]. The rum reveals itself with a subtle and gradual aroma, building up its flavors before fully revealing itself on the palate. It delivers a rich and complex taste, combining subtle notes of nuts, vanilla tobacco, and toasted grains. The palate evokes memories of bourbon or rye, with a full-bodied and satisfying woody texture. As time passes, the flavors evolve, introducing a robust and layered woodiness, accompanied by nuts and toasted grains, specifically rye. Additional notes of cocoa and freshly roasted coffee emerge, adding depth and complexity. The fruit flavors are akin to the deep amber hue of the rum, with dates, figs, and even prunes present. Initially, the rum presents a simpler profile with a more rustic and vegetal character. As it opens up, it reveals a rounder and fuller woodiness, intertwined with almonds and an array of fruits. The palate is marked by a striking and spicy character, with hints of incense and a touch of earthy undertones. The rum's finish is marked by a delightful concentration of waxed wood, accompanied by a faintly oily sensation and a subtle solvent note. The oak imparts a deep and rich nuttiness, complemented by elegant spices. At this stage, the fruit flavors take a backseat, allowing the wood and spices to dominate. This rum is a true testament to the art of rum-making, offering a complex and layered tasting experience that is sure to delight any rum connoisseur.
