Gold of Mauritius
Dark Rum
Customer Rating
“Just back from Mauritius, where I had the pleasure of discovering this new 'marque', the brainchild of Frederic Bestier. We compared it with some of the best-known rums produced on the island (such as the Penny Blue, the Spiced Gold from Labourdonnais, etc). This got the vote hands down, in terms of depth, balance, flavour and complexity. Starts on a seductive, but not overpowering sweet note, with winey aromas (no doubt due to the maturation in old Port casks - not South African fortified wines, according to our barman), and a lovely dark finish. Superb.”

Description
Gold! Always believe in your rum! We're pretty sure that's not how the song goes, but never mind, here's some very tasty rum from Mauritius! Gold of Mauritius matures in South African fortified wine barrels and is then blended in small batches. Well balanced with sweet, chocolatey notes, tropical fruit and savoury touches of oak.
