Damoiseau 1991
Highly praised for its dense, dark profile: intense wood, dried fruits, coffee, chocolate and licorice with great integration and impressive length. A benchmark mature Damoiseau for serious agricole fans.
Seasoned agricole and Demerara fans who enjoy dark, woody, coffee‑and‑chocolate profiles with a touch of bitterness and don’t mind higher ABV.

How does this rum taste?
Dark, woody, coffee‑driven agricole power
If you enjoy heavy Demeraras or older Damoiseau vintages, this rewards you with similar dark depth but an agricole edge and serious complexity at a fair historical price.
Newcomers, those sensitive to 50%+ ABV, or drinkers who dislike bitterness, heavy oak and medicinal/empyrheumatic notes.

Longueur exceptionnelle
Magnificent on the nose, magnificent on the palate, in the end all that was missing was a slightly more successful finish to take it a step further. But if you like notes of coffee, chocolate and wood, go for it!
Un superbe Damoiseau qui montre que la distillerie est capable de faire de grandes choses. Le nez fait preuve d’une certaine puissance et d’une grande élégance sur des notes lourdes de fruits (raisin, fruit rouge sur la groseille et la cerise) et des épices chaleureuses (piment, muscade, pomme au four, réglisse, vanille, poivre). Viennent par la suite du chêne, du cuir, du chocolat noir, du tabac et du café style espresso. Un profil olfactif sombre et raffiné comme on en voit peu aux Antilles françaises. L’attaque en bouche se veut intense, épaisse et profonde. Le fruité est lourd, sur le pruneau, le raisin et la mûre. Les notes sombres sur le cuir, le chocolat noir, le café, le tabac se mêlent aux épices (vanille, reglisse, piment) pour un ensemble rond et cohérent. On ressent aussi le goût de la canne à sucre et de la mélasse. L’alcool est superbement bien intégré. La finale est très longue, sèche et esthétique. On retrouve ce fruité lourd et sec, le côté sombre avec la mélasse et la canne à sucre, des herbes aromatiques, le chêne rôti, du cacao et des épices (cannelle, réglisse). L’empreinte laissée en bouche est très agréable. Un superbe représentant de sa distillerie, qui était disponible à un prix très correct à sa sortie.
Really heavy nose with dark fruit - cherry in particular stands out. Toasty, slightly bitter, yet fruity. Great mouthfeel with a pleasant, natural sweetness. I really like it!
