Rum Stylez French Antilles 2019 Virgin Oak Matured Martinique Le Galion Rhum Grand Arome 70cl 50%Vol

This rum originates from the “Le Galion” distillery in Martinique. Le Galion is exceptional because next to being the only remaining sugar factory in Martinique it also produces rum from molasses. Grand Arôme refers to this distillery’s unique style of column distilled high ester rum. There was no ester/volatile count executed on this batch, but according to the Martinique AOC: Grand Arôme Rum must have volatile substances (other than ethyl and methyl alcohols) of at least 800 gr/hlAA, and an ester content of at least 500 gr/hlAA. This high ester content makes this a powerful rum with complex flavor. It was matured for more than 1 year in a Virgin Oak cask, adding to the rum a spicy and tannic flavor and a beautiful color.
