The Riviere du Mat Reserve Special 6yo is a unique and exceptional rum, with a rich history and a distinct flavor profile. This rum is produced by the Riviere du Mat distillery, located on the island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean. The distillery is known for its traditional methods and high-quality products, using only the finest pure cane juice to create a truly unique and authentic rum.
The Riviere du Mat Reserve Special 6yo is a blend of rums, each aged for at least six years in oak barrels. This aging process gives the rum its rich amber color and its complex flavor profile. The rum has a fruity aroma, with notes of overripe pineapple and slightly sweet green olive. On the palate, it is immediately filled with a tropical fruitiness, reminiscent of a fruit that has fallen from the tree. The cane expresses itself with a candied, matured flavor, with accents of dried fruit.
With aeration, the rum develops a mellow beeswax quality, still bursting with honey. It is overflowing with generosity and returns to the side of tropical fruits in a jackfruit style, with a nice concentration underlined by a hint of solvent. The finish is long and balanced, with a pleasant warmth and a lingering sweetness.
This rum is a true expression of the terroir of Réunion, with its volcanic soil and tropical climate providing the perfect conditions for growing sugarcane. The distillery's traditional methods and attention to detail result in a rum that is both complex and approachable, with a depth of flavor that will satisfy even the most discerning palates.

The Riviere du Mat Reserve Special 6yo has received mixed reviews. Some find the nose and palate to be satisfactory but feel that the flavors flatten before they peak.
