The Tamosi Sawaku is an exceptional 11-year-old rum, distilled at the prestigious Bielle Distillery in Marie Galante, Guadeloupe, and selected and bottled by independent bottler Levy Lane. This 700ml premium rum, with an ABV of 52.5%, boasts a unique and bold character, characterized by a delightful aroma of vanilla, nutmeg, sugarcane, wood, and citrus. The double distillation process, first in a Savalle column still and then in a Muller alambic, gives this rum its distinctive and intricate flavor profile.
The maturation of Tamosi Sawaku is also meticulously crafted, with the first three years spent in bourbon barrels and the following seven years in a foudre, all under the tropical climate of Marie-Galante. This aging process results in a well-balanced, full-bodied spirit with a woody, peppery taste and subtle notes of sugarcane, almond, and a light touch of citrus.
The rum's name, "Sawaku," is derived from a constellation used by the Kalinago people, the original inhabitants of the Lesser Antilles. At least 10% of the profit from every bottle sold by Tamosi goes to support indigenous communities around the world.
The Bielle distillery sources its sugar cane locally from the 15 varieties available on the island. The cane is then freshly pressed and left to ferment in open, large stainless steel tanks with the addition of baker's yeast for 36 to 48 hours. The resulting mash is then distilled to approximately 80+% ABV. The aging process takes place in foudre at the distillery.
Tamosi Sawaku is a true representation of a Marie-Galante Bielle Premium rum, offering a delightful balance between classic agricole grassiness, tropical fruit, and spice. With its rich and intricate flavor profile, this rum is a must-try for any discerning rum enthusiast.
