A Mauritian molasses rum from Saint Aubin under its Gold label, gently spiced and soft with allspice and baked apple, light and a touch short at 40 percent, an easy mellow sipper rather than a dry cane-juice agricole.
Description
Saint Aubin on Mauritius makes its Gold bottling from molasses rather than cane juice, so while the distillery is known for agricole-style rums, this one sits on the molasses side. Lightly aged and bottled at a soft strength, it is built for easy, approachable drinking.
The profile is gentle and warm: allspice on the nose with a spiced, chocolatey edge, and a palate of baked apple that stays mellow and rounded. The finish runs a little short. At 40 percent it is soft and undemanding, a pleasant everyday molasses rum that leans on spice and orchard fruit rather than intensity or grassy cane character. One for relaxed sipping after dinner, honest about being a light, easygoing pour rather than a serious or dry agricole.
