The Rom De Luxe 2005 Secret Distillery Jamaica JMWP Collectors Series No.15 Single Cask no.19 is a distinguished 17-year-old rum, bottled at cask strength with an ABV of 54.4%, exemplifying the dedication to craftsmanship of the Danish brand Rom De Luxe. This exclusive edition, limited to just 252 bottles, was distilled in 2005 using molasses in a Forsyth pot still and subsequently aged in a bourbon cask made from American white oak. Uniquely, its maturation took place in Denmark, allowing it to be influenced by the continental climate rather than the tropical environment of its Jamaican origin. This dark rum boasts a sophisticated and inviting aroma, characterized by the interplay of fruity and sweet scents, including dried fruit, vanilla, overripe tropical fruits such as bananas, and a subtle note of leather. On the palate, it reveals a full-bodied and intricate profile, featuring flavors of tropical and dried fruits, caramel candy, leather, and spicy oak. The finish is notably long-lasting, powerful, and warming, with lingering notes of spices, toffee, and raisins. This premium rum is best savored neat or with a splash of water to fully appreciate its rich and complex flavor profile. A standout in any rum collection, this characterful Jamaican rum sets a high benchmark for the category with its heavy body and intense aroma, distinguishing itself from classic Caribbean rums. Jamaican rums are renowned for their unique flavor profiles, often defined by a high ester content resulting from the use of specialized yeast during fermentation. The Rom De Luxe 2005 is a stellar representation of this style, delivering an unadulterated, high-quality rum experience from an independent bottler.
