Trois Rivieres 1998 Single Cask 15yo 43% 700ml is a rare gem from the esteemed Martinican distillery. This exquisite rum was carefully aged for 16 years, from February 1999 to August 2015, before being bottled at a refined 43% ABV. The tale behind this release adds to its allure: the cask remained hidden in the distillery's cellars until an elderly keeper disclosed its location, asserting that it was meant to save the world from chaos if bottled before 2017. This rum boasts a stunning mahogany hue and a thick, slow-moving texture in the glass. The nose is quintessentially agricole, featuring notes of licorice, vanilla, beeswax, and a refreshing hint of green apple, pear, and a touch of mint. On the palate, it is smooth and sweet, with dominant flavors of licorice and apple, complemented by a subtle woodiness. Although the finish is not exceedingly long due to the 43% ABV, it revisits the licorice notes along with a hint of pepper. In summary, Trois Rivieres 1998 Single Cask 15yo offers a fresh and delightful tasting experience at a reasonable price of €95. While it may not eclipse its older counterparts, it certainly makes a worthy addition to any rum collection and stands as a testament to the quality of the renowned Trois Rivieres distillery.
