That Boutique Y Rum Company Madeira O Reizinho 9 Months Batch 4 50cl 57%Vol

Boutique-y Rum returns to the craft Rum Agrícola da Madeira producer: O Reizinho with a bottling that straddles the vibrant unaged ‘white’ releases, and its genuine aged offerings. Under Madeira Rum law, a Rum needs to be a minimum of three years old before it’s considered ‘aged’, however this nine month rested Rum clearly displays the bright gold hue of time in cask, and the interaction that the Rum has benefitted from presents immediately on the palate – the spirit of the new make sugarcane juice Rum is still present (grassy green olive and crisp white summer fruits), but now it nudges up gently against the soft dried stone fruit of the ex-Madeira fortified wine cask that softens the spirit, lends weight and mouthfeel. One of those situations that proves age is just a number when it comes to flavour.

Produced during the 2019 growing season, this nine month old Agricole Rum was matured entirely in Madeira at O Reizinho before being shipped to the UK for bottling.
