Bologna Dark Sail Old 43°: Description and customer reviews

Bologne Dark Sail Vieux is an agricultural rum from the island of Guadeloupe. The distillery is located on a 3-century-old cane plantation, stretching from the slopes of the Soufrière volcano to the shores of the Caribbean Sea.

The canes are harvested at their optimum ripeness and immediately transported to the distillery for crushing. The pure cane juice is then fermented and distilled in a copper Creole column. This cuvée is a blend of rums aged from 3 to 6 years in American oak barrels that have undergone extensive toasting.

Nico's tasting notes

The nose offers us candied cane within toasted oak. The wood fibers have enriched the vesou with sweet spices such as vanilla, rounding out the vegetal juice. The cane has a well-patinated, velvety texture, but never loses its freshness.

With aeration, the rum retains its delicate mellowness and is enriched by a good deal of sweet spice. These are joined by a burnt woodiness with hints of pits, which continues to gain in intensity, giving the liquid a beautiful stature.

On the palate, we find our burnt, oily woodiness, with hints of tar almost reminiscent of a famous defunct Trinidad distillery. The rhum agricole catches these singular notes on the fly, making them its own and declining them into pastry-like nuances of pits and nuts.

On the finish, the cane has somewhat disappeared in the face of all this richness, but its juice in its most cooked form ends up in a syrup of baking spices.

"A surprising profile for this agricultural rum free of all constraints...".
