Rhum Karukera RÉSERVE SPÉCIALE Rhum Vieux is a premium rum from the French Caribbean island of Guadeloupe, a region renowned for its outstanding rum production. This Rhum Vieux is produced from high-quality sugar cane juice, which gives it the typically fresh and fruity character of Rhum Agricole. After distillation, the rum is aged for at least five years in ex-American bourbon casks, which lend it a pleasant depth and complex aromas. Guadeloupe’s tropical climate favours rapid yet harmonious maturation, which imparts both a rich fruitiness and subtle woody and spicy notes to the rum.

It is the long ageing in the bourbon casks that gives Karukera RÉSERVE SPÉCIALE Rhum Vieux its smooth and complex flavours. The balance between the freshness of the sugar cane juice and the intense woody notes from the casks creates a harmonious flavour profile. At 42% ABV, this rum is full-bodied yet pleasantly accessible, making it an ideal treat for connoisseurs and lovers of high-quality Rhum Agricole.
