Gold of Mauritius Dark Rum 70cl

“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.”
