Famille Ricci Divergence N°1

Divergence N°1 is a Famille Ricci blend that brings together high ester Jamaican rum from Hampden and fresh cane grogue, an unaged white bottled unsweetened at 55%. It plays the house's blending instincts on a clear canvas, tempering Jamaican funk with the minerality and freshness of cane juice spirit.

The nose is estery and green, sugarcane and grass over ripe fruit. The palate alternates between grogue and Jamaican, fresh cane catching up with tropical fruit, with olives, vegetal notes and a peppery, estery lift. The finish stays estery, vegetal and warm. It is a lively, well balanced white that keeps the funk in check with bright cane character and a peppery backbone, drinking dry and full in texture. A rewarding pour neat for those who enjoy the interplay of Hampden esters and fresh grogue, and a punchy base for cocktails.
