The Baie des Trésors Karakoli is a true gem among aged rums, marking a significant milestone in the history of the Baie des Trésors house.
Karakoli, the first aged rum from this renowned Martinique distillery, is a pure cane juice rum distilled in 2019 and aged for 3 years in oak barrels.
The canes come from the arid Spoutourne plot, known for its contribution to the Fleurs du Vent cuvée.
This prolonged aging brings unparalleled richness and complexity, paying tribute to the exceptional quality of the volcanic lands of the Caravelle peninsula.
TASTING NOTES :
COLOR: A brilliant golden robe, interspersed with amber and slightly reddish highlights, testifying to its richness and its aging in oak barrels.
NOSE: From the first nose, Karakoli reveals remarkable complexity and power. Delicate woody notes intertwine with pastry nuances of caramelized vanilla and desiccated coconut, typical of American oak. The bouquet evolves towards fresh and pronounced floral accents, followed by notes of dried tobacco and balsamic touches punctuated with coffee and chocolate. In the background, spices (floral pepper, cinnamon), dried flowers, and a hint of saffron complete this rich and harmonious aromatic profile.
PALATE: The attack is supple, marked by an elegant and well-integrated tannic structure. The silky texture envelops the palate, revealing floral and balsamic aromas (honey, spices, roasting). The palate is round and ample, perfectly balanced, ending on an intense, fresh, and rich finish that lingers long in the mouth.
