L’Esprit Trinidad Ten Cane 2008-2022 63.4°: Description and customer reviews

Esprit Ten Cane 2008-2022 is a rum made from pure cane juice in Trinité, an island in the south of the West Indies near Venezuela.

This rum comes from the Ten Cane distillery, created in 2007 by the wines and spirits division of French luxury goods group LVMH. Its aim was to produce premium pot still rum made from pure cane juice for the American market. Having failed to achieve the desired success, the distillery was closed and destroyed just a few years after its creation. Suffice it to say, this kind of rum is in short supply!

Distilled in May 2008 and bottled in January 2022, 264 bottles of this nearly 14-year-old rum were produced from a single cask. It is a brut de fût, bottled without coloring or cold filtration.

Nico's tasting notes

On the nose, the concentration immediately grabs you and doesn't belie the sublime color of this rum. The burnt oak gives off aromas of roasting, from coffee to nuts to the smoke of a wood fire.

Aeration reveals an almost resinous vegetal side that rests in the penumbra of the barrel. The heart of the rum is there, vibrant, dark, concentrated, like cane juice reduced to the strict minimum, a liquorice core, molasses-cured grass.

On the palate, the cane takes off, enters the herbs for a moment, then returns to explode on the palate. It's always this oily concentration that impresses and delights, with the sensation of a cane that's mellow and powerful, tender and intense. In its candied fiber: coffee, molasses, sage, and a little rancio with nutty, buttery accents.

The finish is long, with coffee, a hint of tar and some green tannins, slightly bitter but generously coated with our generous cane.

"A monstrous but benevolent cane, nestling at the bottom of a pitch-black barrel..."
