This Longueteau Genesis rum batch 3 from the Esperance distillery in Guadeloupe is produced from red cane, grown on plot No. 9 at the habitation. It’s from the 2018 harvest and has rested for 2 years after its distillation in a stainless tank aerated regularly. Thereafter is this brut de colonne bottled without any reduction at 72,7% in 5000 bottles. Overall a really great Agricole Blanc that’s very aromatic, powerful and incredibly soft for the high ABV.
This Brut de Colonne was recommended to me and ultimately given to me as a gift. And the recommendation is justified... an absolute delight. An intense yeast, olive, sugar cane and grass note on the nose. Alhohol barely perceptible. On the palate, an amazing oily smooth distribution without the slightest bite of alcohol (<72%) and the full spectrum of vegetality with a hint of citrus marmalade 😋. The finish remains intense and long... Great... curious to see how it works as a mixer
"Not used to drinking rum at 70+ but this is really incredible, what a pleasure! It's still crazy! To sum up, my tasting notes: On the nose: Herbaceous, Peppery, Green On the palate: Lime, Vegetal, Peppery Finish: Peppery, Lime, Sugar cane, Vegetable".
Wow, this one is fresher than its lightly coloured brother. Equally well balanced and fruity, just fresher in the profile. The palate is oily and it draws really nice curtains in the glass. The empty glass is also very nice and fruity with a light cheese note 😊
