The Transcontinental Rum Line 2009 Fiji Line #13 is an exquisite rum with an alcohol content of 57.18% and a volume of 700ml. Distilled in September 2009 at the South Pacific distillery in Fiji, this rum matured in the tropical climate until June 2010. It then continued to age for over seven years in the continental climate of Europe. The rum is a product of a limited batch of only 966 bottles, born from four carefully selected casks, promising a rich and intricate tasting journey. The nose of this rum surprises with caramelized cane syrup, retaining a refreshing quality. As it breathes, aromas of fermented molasses, very ripe fruits, a creamy texture, and a hint of copper emerge, showcasing elegance and subtlety. With aeration, the rum intensifies significantly, maintaining its classy character. The balance between well-matured yet vibrant fruits, honey, vegetal notes, and a touch of vanilla is impeccable. On the palate, the intensity surges. The rum is straightforward, unfaltering, and follows a well-structured, upward trajectory. It bursts with exotic fruits, accentuated by cherry pit, pastry almond, and raisins, followed by nuances of yeast, tobacco, and tea. The power is masterfully calibrated, presenting a clear and precise profile, demonstrating exceptional craftsmanship. This rum presents a profile reminiscent of Jamaica and Port Mourant, without the wildness but with rare finesse. The finish is marked by copper, cherry pit, and prune, resembling an aged fruit brandy, leaving a lingering sensation of sweet and pastry notes. A traditional molasses rum, it offers fruity and creamy notes of pineapple, banana, lemon, and coconut milk, with a delicate apricot finish. The lactic and lemony notes form the backbone, seamlessly connecting the different stages of this exceptional tasting experience.
