Carrere Montebello Vieux Rhum 2003 8yr 42%

RX3531 Good Column Still Rum <100€
“Fragrant and woody with soft fruit notes.”

Montebello Vieux Rhum from the Carrere distillery in Guadeloupe is a thoughtfully crafted agricole rum distilled in 2003 from sugarcane juice and aged for 8 years. The rum offers olfactory notes of fresh sugarcane, woodiness, and tropical fruits like banana and mango. Its flavor profile is dry and woody with hints of dried fruit and soft peaches. While well-received for its freshness and complexity on the nose, some users feel it lacks intensity and structure on the palate. The rum's subtle spice notes offer an intriguing dimension, making it a desirable choice for discerning enthusiasts seeking a balance of fruit and wood nuances. This rum is ideal for those appreciating distilled intricacies and soft finishes.

“With a medium long finish you get a pretty good rum considering the price tag. The Agricole notes are there as well as light fruit and spices. I rally like the dry oily feel on the palate.”

“Mais quelle jolie surprise !!! Un rhum qui ne paye pas de mine et m'a étonné par tous ses aspects. Du nez : puissant, boisé avec un peu de fruit - Au palais : complexe, chaud et poivré, presque piquant. Il m'oblige à y retourner plusieurs fois pour en apprécier les nuances, découvrant des touches de réglisse et de gingembre. Une dégustation inattendue qui oblige à davantage d'attention que la moyenne... bref, j'aime !”
