A single cask Mauritian rum from Grays under the New Grove label, a ten year molasses blend chosen for LMDW and bottled at 45.6%, full of apricot, peach and tropical fruit compote over vanilla and light oak.
Description
Grays is one of Mauritius's established producers, and this New Grove Royal Rum Blend was selected as a single cask for the 60th anniversary of La Maison du Whisky. Mauritius sits outside the agricole appellations, and this expression is made from molasses, so it drinks as a soft, fruit-forward island rum rather than a grassy cane-juice spirit.
Matured in ex-bourbon oak and bottled at 45.6%, it offers a generous nose of dried apricot, peach and mandarin with a peppery lift, then a sweet, fruity, citrus-edged palate that stays easy and balanced. The finish brings woody spice and a touch of leather. Tropically aged for a decade, it carries real fruit depth while remaining very approachable neat, a fine stepping stone for anyone exploring the rums of the Indian Ocean.
