Rum Nation Mauritius 8 Year Old Cask Strength (70cl, 54.9%)

A Mauritian rum shaped by two successive maturation phases in bourbon casks: five years in ex-bourbon casks, then a further three years and four months in first-fill bourbon casks. This second phase deepens its fruity and sweet-spicy character, and maturation took place under tropical conditions. Rum Nation released this limited edition in 2025 with a worldwide outturn of 1,983 bottles. It is bottled at cask strength at 54.9% vol, with no colouring and no added sugar, in a 700 ml bottle with gift packaging. Nose: toffee, caramel and maple syrup with caramelised tropical fruits and vanilla. Palate: full-bodied and round, with lime and mint freshness plus mild spices. Finish: long, with oak, banana and mango and a tropically fruity sweetness.
