A blend of Martinique and Thai rum bottled by Compagnie des Indes as Tatänic 2018 at 44%, joining grassy cane and agricole notes to caramel, honey and spice, a young, fresh, terroir-led blend that is more curious experiment than seamless marriage.
Description
Taïtaïnic 2018 is one of Compagnie des Indes's playful cross-origin blends, here marrying agricole-leaning rum from Martinique with rum from Thailand, finished in ex-bourbon wood and bottled at a natural 44% after five years. The house is known for terroir-led transparency, and this release wears its experimental nature openly.
The nose carries caramel, sugarcane, candied fruit and oak, while the palate brings sugarcane, honey, spice and vanilla ahead of a vegetal, herbal, grassy finish that shows the agricole side clearly. Drinkers describe it as a young, grassy agricole-tinged blend, and some feel the two origins sit side by side rather than fully fusing into something new. Taken as an honest, fresh and faintly rustic curiosity, it is an engaging pour for those who enjoy tracing cane character, best sipped neat to pick apart its two halves.
