RX16240 Good Column Still Rum Single Cask 252 bottles Under 250€

The Spirit of Art, a limited release from Valinch & Mallet, is a 30-year-old Grenadian rum distilled in 1993 and bottled at 57.7% ABV. This rum enchants with its woody and roasted aroma, enriched with oak and earthy notes. Despite some criticisms about its pronounced alcohol presence, it unfolds a sweet and complex palate with flavors of vanilla, caramel, and toffee. Subtle hints of spices and wooded undertones add depth. The rum leaves behind an intriguing tobacco and leather scent in the empty glass. Ideal for those appreciating a well-aged sipper that combines roasted woodiness with sweet caramel and vanilla nuances. Secure one of the 252 exclusive bottles and savor its unique character.

“#4120 I was looking forward to this old rum but it was rather disappointing. Even after a very long rest the ABV was still kind of dominant masquerading the other flavours. Roasted wood comes in second followed by sule fruit, spices and caramel. Draws nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass has some tobacco and leather notes.”

“Interesting nose. Taste on the rather sweet side with vanilla, toffee, some wood and subtle spices. Not much more happens - enough for a pleasing sipper, but is also not a revelation for a rum aged for thirty years.”

“Unbelievable that after 30 years of storage, the alcohol is still poorly integrated and not much comes across in taste other than neutral alcohol.”
