Trois Rivieres 1999 Grande Reserve is a limited edition agricultural rum, produced from the distillation of pure cane juice in a Creole column still at La Mauny. This vintage rum is a result of a blend created by Daniel Baudin, who works for both Trois Rivieres and La Mauny.
The rum is characterized by its balance and liveliness, with a bourbon-like flight on the palate that features white wood, sweet vanilla, and almost cereal syrup, reminiscent of American whiskey. The agricultural rum returns with a peppery cane note that carries some fermentation notes, developing into dried fruit.
The aromatic profile is bright and lively, with notes of nuts and citrus peel, and the woodiness delivers notes of cooked apple, reminiscent of a rustic cider brandy. The acidity is well-balanced, and the rum has a certain elegance of old brandy.
With aeration, the rum spreads over a more delicate, fresher fruitiness, with notes of pears in syrup, peaches, and cherries. The pits of these fruits bring a certain elegance reminiscent of old brandy.
The rum is structured by a combination of sweetness and tannins, with nuances of sweet spices accompanied by notes of tobacco that end on aromas of precious wood. This limited edition vintage rum perfectly illustrates Trois Rivieres' expertise in creating an intense and refined profile.
