Chamarel VS is a column-distilled rum made from the pure juice of sugar cane harvested on the Chamarel estate.
The rum is then aged for 3 years in American oak barrels.
Nico's tasting notes
The nose is immediately complex, intriguing and charming. Between toast and sweet cane, it creates a sensation of harmony, with aromas intertwining without any one taking precedence over the others. The vegetal notes are round, candied and gently spicy, with a hint of light citrus. Aeration makes the rum even more pleasant. The alcohol melts perfectly, and all the aromas glide silkily and smoothly under the nose. The cane juice is rich in tobacco and sweet spices, supported by a subtle hint of copper.
The palate is balanced, with a luscious attack of richly dressed cane. The wood seems white and fresh, and there's also a vinous side that tugs at ripe yellow fruit. The oak is adorned with blond tobacco and black tea, with an almost brioche-like greediness. It melts away with tenderness, losing a little of its thickness, leaving room for a delicate cane.
The finish is rather fragile and sensitive, continuing on vanilla and sweet cane.
"A very successful, well-balanced blend, for delicate, subtle flavors..."
