A Guadeloupe rum bearing the initials “JR” of the distillery's founder, Joseph Reimonenq. I am this cuvée of the ReimonenQ JR series, which is distilled in double columns, then aged for 4 years in ex-bourbon oak barrels. I'm a rum with woody, tobacco and licorice flavors and a gourmand, chocolatey finish.
The nose opens with a golden agricultural rum, with a lovely patina of wood. The oak is rich and thick, its rounded grain rolling under the nostrils. It develops greedy, fatty notes of nuts, even peanut butter.
A Reimonenq delicacy begins to emerge, all subtlety. Dried fruit and tobacco then quietly creep in, amidst an ever-rich, greedy woodiness.
The palate is very light on the attack, then taken over by toasty oak that captures the attention of the taste buds. The rhum agricole becomes warmer, the cane juice swells and takes on fullness.
The finish reveals hints of chocolate and prune, but all this greediness remains controlled by the peppery agricultural rum.
