Released in November 2016, Penny Blue VSOP is blended using distilled made from the fermented molasses of sugar cane grown on the Medine Estate, Mauritius, aged for a minimum of four years in a combination of ex-bourbon, ex-cognac and ex-whisky casks.
The blend was assembled by Doug McIvor of Berry Bros. & Rudd and Jean-Francois Koenig, Master Distiller at Medine Distillery.
Penny Blue VSOP is bottled without added colouring or chill filtration.
Sampled on 23/10/2016
Clear, golden amber.
Vanilla, walnuts, wood varnish, tropical fruity esters, toasty cedarwood, toffee popcorn and nutmeg.
Dry, woody and spicy with rich vanilla, walnut, toffee popcorn and faint orange oil.
Cinnamon, black pepper and nutmeg spice subsides to reveal long lingering dry nutty vanilla and faint varnish.
Dry and woody, yet rich with enlivening spice. This is a true, honest and characterful rum for real rum drinkers.
