Longueteau Symphonie Brut de fût batch 10 48,7° : Description and customer reviews

Like its predecessor, Longueteau Symphonie batch 10 rum is a blend of different aged rums aged over 3 years.
The cellar master has selected vintages aged in ex-cognac oak and new oak barrels.

The rum was bottled brut de fût, i.e. without reduction, and is 48.7° proof.

Longueteau's Harmonie range is a step up in maturity and complexity:

  • Prélude introduces the new woody style of the house, still a little young, more on new oak, and marked by white rum.
  • Symphonie reveals a mature woodiness and a rum that is beginning to age, not to mention the freshness of the cane.
  • Concerto is by far the oldest of the three, with its woody, mellow notes and generous texture.

Nico's tasting notes

On the nose, the cane has a sort of marzipan patina with woody nuances, almost reminiscent of putty or modeling clay, which in any case brings a particularly pleasant mellowness. The ripe juice is rich in soft, vegetal and fruity aromas, with naturalness and ripeness the watchwords.

Aeration brings us a little closer to the raw material, fresh cane juice pressed to maturity, with candied pepper and soft, elegant citrus peel. The cane is at its peak, bursting with exotic fruits and spices, and refreshed by a hint of menthol.

On the palate, the sugarcane settles its sweet, velvety juice, perfumed with citrus peel and rich oils. The rhum agricole takes the lead, building on the patina of the wood, borrowing hints of caramel and sweet spices to support its naturally peppery character. The fruit becomes more candied, even dried, on the mid-palate, and the cooked cane juice takes on nuances of licorice.

The finish returns to cane juice au naturel, with a certain vegetal, minty and finely peppery freshness.

"A lovely patina of wood that serves as a showcase for fresh, natural cane juice..."

In comparison, the Longueteau Symphonie Brut de fût batch 9 had a significantly different profile, or at least a different order. On the nose, the woodiness was drier, appearing only later, while the cane was immediately prominent. The palate was undoubtedly less round, younger, with more wood.

What the two expressions have in common is the regular to-and-fro between youth and maturity, cane juice and oak.
