LAST WARD Barbados 2007 70 cl. 60%

Pure Single Rum

Founded in Barbados in 1703, this distillery is famous for being the oldest distillery in the world still in operation. If we had to pick just two words to describe this version distilled in pot stills and aged in bourbon barrels, they would unquestionably be ‘maturity’ and ‘classicism’. This rum draws its powers of seduction from a palette of flavours and aromas that is continually changing and wonderfully evocative, and of course its taste for long-distance journeys.

TASTING NOTES
Nose : Refined, complex. A close reflection of the Grande Champagne cognac terroir, the first nose is tertiary (candied apricot, dead leaves, forest floor). Allowed to breathe, noble spices (cardamom, nutmeg) and exotic fruits (mango, pomegranate) appear in equal intensity alongside notes of precious wood.

Appearance : Vieil or à reflets cuivrés.

Palate : Rich, heady. A change of scene sees cane sugar, molasses and geranium take over the flavour palette. With impressive vitality, the mid-palate is refreshed by pressed oranges.

Overall : Long, full. Fibrous (cane), roasted (coffee) and spicy (ginger, cinnamon), the finish becomes floral (reseda, hyacinth) and vegetal (pipe tobacco). Nutty notes (walnut, hazelnut, almond) faithfully recreate the aroma palette’s autumnal character.
