Bougainville Single Cask 2015 Limited Edition 7Y Old Ex-Pedro Ximénez Sherry Casks With Box 50% 50cl

This exceptional Bougainville Single Cask 2015 is a decadent journey into the heart of Mauritius. Far more than a traditional aged rum, it is a striking fusion of tropical intensity, meticulous maturation, and a world-class finish. Distilled from 100% Mauritian molasses and aged for seven long years, this limited single cask edition is the rum that, as they say, "pushes the limit just a bit too far!"

Created with an uncompromising focus on texture and gourmandise, this single cask masterpiece transforms a classic molasses spirit into a rich, liquid dessert. It is a bold statement of craftsmanship, perfect for those who seek a rum that is as thick and generous as a chocolate fondant.

A Masterclass in Refinement

Every bottle of this Single Cask 2015 embodies the art of patient aging and innovative finishing. The character of this rum was forged through a precise technical process:

  • Initial Aging: Matured for 7 years fully in a carefully selected ex-Pedro Ximénez (PX) Sherry cask, providing a sturdy backbone of depth, structure, and rich sweetness.

  • Double Finish: A sophisticated maturation where the authentic Mauritian molasses profile and the intense PX sherry sweetness intertwine seamlessly into a highly concentrated profile.

  • Artisanal Reduction: Cask strength filling at 70% followed by a slow, drop-by-drop reduction over six months down to 50% ABV, preserving every ounce of its oily texture and aromatic density.

Tasting Experience

Inside the bottle lies a profile so rich and velvety that it feels like Christmas in a glass.

  • Nose: For the chocolate and sherry lovers! You are immediately immersed in a bath of dried fruits, raisins, plums, and sweet sherry notes—thick, greasy, and flowing. It evokes the scent of a buttery chocolate fondant fresh from the oven. Then, a "diva" makes her entrance: subtle cocoa and gentle toasted oak. This is followed by layers of gingerbread, cinnamon, and a comforting touch of natural molasses sweetness.

  • Palate: Pure indulgence. The term "fondant" was no exaggeration; the rum literally melts on the palate with generous caramel, dark fruit, and a near-sorbet-like freshness of PX richness. The density and "fat" are remarkable, offering notes of orangettes, subtly smoky tones, oven-warm gingerbread, and a creamy tiramisu beautifully integrated with refined bitterness.

  • Finish: Long, dry, and incredibly gourmand. The texture clings to the palate, leaving a characterful conclusion of lingering dried fruit and soft spice, inviting you back for another sip just for the sheer pleasure of it.
