Gold of Mauritius Dark Rum is a traditional molasses rum distilled in columns, then aged in South African barrels (in the Cape region, to be precise) that have previously held Port. Finally, it is bottled unfiltered.
This rum from Mauritius can be drunk neat or in cocktails.
Nico's tasting notes
The nose of this rum is very sweet, with yellow fruit and cherry. The profile is both very fruity and very sweet. It's easy to imagine a packet of banana or strawberry tagada sweets. After this very festive phase, the rum takes a drier, more sophisticated turn: the woodiness is both dry and youthful, with slight hints of cocoa and vanilla, and above all nuts such as peanuts and almonds. This dryness alternates with an indulgent, regressive character, sometimes reminiscent of syrup or even chewing gum.
On aeration, bananas and fruit in general spread out. Nuts do the same before the two worlds meet and mix. We then have the acidity of cherry and raspberry, but also powdery, melting nuts that are ready to meet and amalgamate.
On the palate, the rum is very light, extremely fluid, and won't upset sensitive palates in the slightest. One might think of an infusion of flowers (hibiscus) and red fruits, or a blend of strawberries and coconut milk. As with the nose, a slightly drier tendency brings pepper and woodiness, but this time the greediness easily wins the day.
The finish is very light, leaving the taste buds with a few spicy flavors and a slight tingle.
