New Grove Beau Plan (70cl)

New Grove Beau Plan is an agricole-style rum from Mauritius, made at the New Grove distillery from locally grown sugar cane. It is aged in casks in the island's hot, humid climate, which speeds the exchange between spirit and wood and gives a quicker, more intense development while keeping the rum fresh. The nose is balanced, with ripe fruit, vanilla and wood, and a light spiciness. On the palate it starts soft and builds into fruit, caramel and spice, with a round texture. The finish is long, with woody, spicy and slightly sweet notes.
