Mauritius 9 Rum, crafted at the Labourdonnais distillery, is distilled from sugar cane juice using a column still and matured for 9 years. Bottled at a robust 57.9% ABV by The Duchess, this rum reveals a citrus, floral, and spicy nose, complemented by a fruity, dried fig palate with a spicy finish. While appreciated for its aromatic complexity, some find the alcohol overpowering and the maturation effect subdued. Users recommend allowing it to breathe for a balanced experience.

"Nicht als R(h)um zu erkennen, geschweige denn als ein Destillat von Mauritius. Durchgefallen. Labourdonnais hat eine wunderschön angelegte kleine Destillerie mit allem Drum und Dran, aber richtig guten Rum für gehobene Ansprüche können sie in meinen Augen einfach nicht (aber richtig feine Spiced Rums!!!). Update 2024-04-24: Ein wirklich schwieriger Rum. Die eigentlich ganz interessante Waldmeisternote ist sehr eindimensional und wird zudem durch den scharfen Alkohol wieder zunichte gemacht. Keine Empfehlung."
"#4552 16.01.2024 Enjoying a little sample now that I've decided to participate in the meet up in Steinhorst. Really looking forward to meeting some new faces and rummies. This is an OK rum but not one I'd go back to as such. A fruity profile that I think is out of balance. Nice floral notes and a pinch of chocolate in t he profile. The palate is warm/spicy with an earthy note. The finish is medium long and spicy with fruits. The empty glass has light tobacco and faint leather."
"A very nice Agricole this is. It tastes quite young, not really 9 years old (maybe continental aging or a quite neutral cask?), but this makes it a Rum that has not lost its sugarcane origins. The roughness of young Agricoles is mild here, but as other said: have it breathe a while. I like it very much, it seems to be an easy sipper. The second attempt was a bit less pleasant, there was a big alcohol burn, thus reducing the overall rating."
"Very floral aroma density. Would like to see a little more fruit, especially on the nose. On the palate then a little more fruit and spice. The finish lacks a little power."
