Hee Joy XO Trinidad 2005 45° : Description and customer reviews

Hee Joy XO Trinidad 2005 is a molasses rum distilled at Trinidad Distillers Limited, in the state of Trinidad & Tobago. Production takes place in a series of 4 columns, just like Angostura rums, a famous brand from the same distillery.

Distilled in 2005, it spent 13 years in American oak barrels. Then, when it arrived in Charente Maritime, it was finished for 6 months in old XO Cognac casks. This is a limited edition single cask, reduced and bottled by Hedonist Spirits.

Nico's tasting notes

On the nose, we are initially enveloped by a confectionery-like sweetness, with tangy fruits sprinkled with powdered sugar. The backdrop is a slightly fuller-bodied rum, with ripe exotic fruit varnished with a hint of tar and copper.

With aeration, the slightly metallic, ripe fruit becomes sweeter and more mature. We then encounter a blend of exotic fruit jams (especially guava) cooking in a copper pot, which concentrates until it pulls towards fruit paste.

On the palate, we're delighted to find the typical character of Trinidad rums, with guava jam, copper, stone and a slight touch of tar. On the mid-palate, we indulge in something more gourmand, more pastry-like, with almond, velvety aromatics, cane and sweet spices.

The finish is long and delicious, with concentrated rum that never leaves the palate.

"A typically Trinidadian rum, with a sweetness that makes it particularly gourmet..."
