Compagnie des Indes 5 Year Old Jamaica Rum (700ml)

Compagnie des Indes is a French bottler, based in Beaune and managed by Florent Beuchet. Rums are selected for their typicity and regional distinction, then brought back to France for maturation. Most are bottled without the addition of caramel colour or sugars. This edition is made from rums sourced from four different Jamaican distilleries and showcases the pot still style representative of the island's best. Some have compared the flavour profile of this bottling to agricole.

Tasting note: Bright gold. Interesting aromas of elderflower cordial / dried apricot / marzipan in the opening sniff followed by medium bodied flavours of dried fruits (mango, apricot), banana cake and a delicious creamy-soda and elderflower finish with lingering vanilla sugars. Uniquely styled and deceptively long. 43% Alc./Vol.
