Aged since 2003, in oak barrels imported from Scotland, then bottled in December 2018 for a limited series of 309 bottles. It is a pricy Rum that has more of a Scotch feel and finish.
Tasting note - banana, coffee, molasses with a hint of licorice

Most rum around the world is made from molasses, a byproduct of sugar refining. In 1811, when France began to make sugar from sugar beets, sugar prices dropped and the factories in the French Caribbean could not survive solely on sugar production. The fresh cane juice was now available for fermenting and distilling into rum.
Cane juice rums from Mauritius are labeled AOC because French and European law allowed a designation called "Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée" (protected designation of origin) for rums produced on the island that meet certain local standards. Cane juice rums are usually distilled to 70% alcohol (140 proof) and then watered down to 40–55% (80–110 proof) when bottled. It is aged as little as a few months or up to a few years. After three years of aging in oak barrels, it may be called old rum.

Very floral rum, aged in oak casks, but floral nose/flavour prevails....
