Rhum J.M – Cask Strength 2009 – Leather Label – 43.6%
Located in the north of Martinique, at the foot of Mount Pelée, J.M Distillery is one of the island’s oldest and most prestigious producers. A true specialist in AOC Martinique agricole rum, it has been crafting distinctive vintages since the 19th century, always reflecting its unique volcanic terroir and artisanal savoir-faire. Each J.M vintage expresses both the identity of the house and the singular character of its harvest year.
The Cask Strength 2009 is an exceptional edition of old agricole rum, bottled at its natural strength of 43.6%. Patiently aged in American oak casks in Macouba’s cellars, this vintage highlights the richness and depth of J.M rum. Its refined leather label presentation makes it a rare and prestigious collector’s piece. Limited production further emphasizes its exclusive value.
Its mahogany hue with copper highlights announces great maturity. The nose is complex and refined, revealing aromas of dried fruits, cocoa, vanilla, and blond tobacco, supported by subtle woody and spicy notes. On the palate, the attack is broad and silky, unveiling a fine structure with flavors of candied fruits, dark chocolate, and caramel. The long, harmonious finish lingers on an elegant combination of toasted oak, sweet spices, and licorice. A rare sipping rum that embodies the nobility and savoir-faire of J.M.
