The Saint Aubin XO is a premium rum originating from the picturesque island of Mauritius, distilled by the renowned Saint Aubin Distillery. This exceptional rum is crafted from the estate's own sugarcane using a combination of column and pot stills. The rum of interest is distilled in pot stills and meticulously aged for a minimum of 6 years in two distinct types of casks: new French oak barrels and ex-cognac barrels. This unique aging process imparts a harmonious balance of full-bodied rum and velvety fruitiness. On the palate, expect an array of delightful flavors including copper, lightly smoked spices, toasted wood, tropical and orchard fruits, honey, stone, pine resin, and a hint of amaretto.
As an upgrade from the distillery's VSOP, the Saint Aubin XO Rum showcases finesse and elegance, embodying the high expertise and experience of its makers. Distilled from sugarcane juice rather than molasses, it bears resemblance to Rhum Agricole. The rum is full-bodied and has a complex, kraftige profile with notes of grass, tropical fruits, papaya, green apple, earthy and woody undertones, marzipan, anis, and occasional hints of amaretto or honey. It is both corporeal and samtig weich, leaving a long-lasting impression.
