That Boutique Y Rum Company Haiti Single Distillery 15 Years Batch 5 50cl 61,4%Vol

Description

Artwork:
The label was originally created by Jim’ll Paint It and has been updated by the design team at ATOM. The iconic brightly coloured dwellings of Jalousie, in Pétionville, Port-au-Prince, sit beneath a fiery dusk sky. The famous Iron Market enjoys artistic licence in the middle distance. Folks from history sit at a street cafe, chatting about art and culture, enjoying a glass of delicious aged Haitian Rum. General Toussaint Louverture remains an iconic leader of the Republic of Haiti. To his right, the statue of the Unknown Slave, Le Marron Inconnu has arisen from his mount, although he still has his conch shell with him. Artist Hector Hyppolite, famous for his painting ‘Damballah La Flambeau’, sits to the left of the easel. Next to Hector, we see a lady in her traditional Haitian Quadrille dress and headscarf.
Pretty sure there’s a story behind the inclusion of the vendor with the three-wheel bike heavily laden with crates of fruit and a large cooler underneath a large parasol…
The light fades at the end of the day, but it’s not the End of the World.

Tasting Note:
Nose: A gloriously fruity nose of dried mango and pineapple pieces. Creamy vanilla custard. Grassy, with hints of eucalyptus and green tea.
Palate: Soft sweet plums and papaya fill the mouth with a creamy texture.
Finish: A long, dry, oaky experience, with peppery warmth and a little briny black olive.
