Rhum Chantal Comte Bellevue L’Or des Caraïbes Vieille Réserve 2023

Rhum Chantal Comte Bellevue L'Or des Caraibes Vieille Reserve is a Marie-Galante agricole drawn from the Bellevue distillery and bottled by Rhum Chantal Comte, a house known for bold, wood driven cane juice selections. Distilled from fresh sugarcane juice and bottled at a powerful 64%, it turns the proof and the oak up well past the everyday agricole.

This is intensity handled with some care. Nutty, vegetal and roasted notes lead the nose, the palate brings precise wood, saline orange and grassy cane with real concentration, and the finish runs warm, woody and spiced with a grassy thread. The high strength rewards a drop of water, which freshens the cane. A serious, structured agricole for experienced drinkers who want power and woody, grassy depth rather than easy sweetness, best taken slowly.
