Trois Rivières 12 ans is a blend of several agricultural rums aged for 12 to 15 years in oak barrels that once contained bourbon, to produce a powerful, richly flavored rum.
Laurent's tasting notes
Its color is a beautiful copper with green highlights.
On the nose, a number of aromas tickle the nostrils. First of all, fruit: apple, the liveliness of red fruit, nuts and the slightly more discreet peach. Of course, the wood is there too, normal for its age. The whole is beautifully balanced.
On the palate, the influence of the cask becomes more apparent. Tobacco appears and the impression is slightly tannic. The apple resists.
The finish is long. Here too, it's the cask that takes the lead: light wood, tobacco, vanilla and that tannic impression again. This time it's the peach that comes in for the fruity presence (albeit rather discreetly). After a while, wet wood and cane make a timid appearance.
