Trois Rivieres 13 Year Old Single Cask Rhum Vieux Agricole｜ Other Products

Rum Ratings' drinkers score Trois Rivières' single casks the highest of anything the estate makes — the 1998 and 2003 casks both hit 8.0 — and this thirteen-year is one of them. Trois Rivières was founded in 1660 in Sainte-Luce on Martinique's south coast, named for the three rivers that border its cane fields — Oman, Bois d'Inde, and Saint-Pierre — and it earned the AOC Martinique in 1996; since 2004 its rhums have been made at the Rivière-Pilote distillery under the same house, now owned by Campari. This Single Cask is fresh estate cane juice, fermented, distilled on a single 22-plate copper column, aged thirteen years in one oak cask in Martinique's climate, and bottled at cask strength with nothing added under the AOC; check your label for the vintage, cask number, ABV, and outturn. Thirteen tropical years on Martinique cane is a long time — the angels take most of the barrel — and a single cask shows the estate's spirit with nothing smoothed over: expect a nose of dried fig, toasted oak, tobacco, walnut, and a faint rancio over the cane's grassy, mineral thread, opening into a dense, layered palate of caramel, dark spice, dried fruit, and cocoa with the proof carrying real weight, finishing very long and dry — opening beautifully with water. Honest note: a collector's agricole, limited and priced for it. Neat, with a drop of water, slowly. One cask, thirteen years, the oldest estate on the island.Buy Trois Rivieres 13 Year Old Single Cask Rhum Vieux Agricole online with fast shipping right to your door.
