Emperor
Private Collection Mauritius Rum

Category: Rum (Aged more than 3 Years)

Date Tasted:
Country: Mauritius
Alcohol: 42%
Dark amber color. Aromas and flavors of green onion, fresh romaine lettuce, licorice, sunflower seeds, dried pineapple, and copper pot with a round, bright, dryish light body and a warming, appealing, medium-long finish imparting accents of sweet soy, bananas foster, candied orange and ginger, and white pepper. A round and warming rum that shifts from a distinctively vegetal nose to a creamy and caramelized palate; very fun for cocktails.

Rum Aged more than 3 Years

Añejo and Age-Dated Rums are aged Rums from different vintages or batches that are mixed together to insure a continuity of flavor in brands of Rum from year to year. Some aged Rums will give age statements stating the youngest Rum in the blend (e.g., 10-year-old Rum contains a blend of Rums that are at least 10 years old). A small number of French island Rums are Vintage Dated.
