Mhoba Select Reserve Glass Cask 60°: Description and customer reviews

ATTENTION if you wish a particular batch please contact us, the photo may not correspond to the one currently in stock.

Mhoba Select Reserve Glass Cask, a pure South African cane-juice rum, has been aged for over 2 years in glass jars.

The distillery first cut and charcoal-heated American white oak staves (*). These staves were then placed in the dames-jeannes to transfer their tannins to the rum.

(*) staves, or douves, are bent and shaped planks of wood that are joined together to form a barrel.

Nico's tasting notes

The nose seems light at first. A few floral notes (geranium) take flight at first, with copper and very ripe, full-bodied fruit. The sweetness arrives with a sort of banana cake, brioche and a hint of resin. It's amazing how reminiscent this profile is of certain Jamaican rums, notably Worthy Park.

Aeration leaves much more room for the wood, which shows off its lovely concentration. It's dry and toasty, but that doesn't stop it from sending out taut vanilla, coconut and, above all, lots of spices like cinnamon and cardamom.

On the palate, the rum is taut and rather dry. Exotic fruit mingles with copper and spices with a lively vivacity. The raw white wood is imbued with round, delicate cane juice, bringing us back to the simple, natural cane eau-de-vie.

The finish returns to banana and brioche character, with yeast and mellow pinewood.

"An unexpected profile for a pure cane juice rum. We're really approaching a Jamaican style à la Worthy Park..."
