DBM – Bonne-Mère Distillery – Old VSOP Rum – 43%
Located in Sainte-Rose, Guadeloupe, Distillerie Bonne-Mère (DBM) is now one of the leading names in Caribbean artisanal spirits. Heir to traditional expertise and driven by a spirit of innovation, it produces rums that reflect the authenticity and richness of its tropical terroir. Since its arrival on the French market in 2024, DBM has seduced with its strong identity, combining demanding quality with masterful creativity.
The Rhum Vieux VSOP (Very Superior Old Pale) , with an alcohol content of 43%, illustrates the distillery's rise in the world of aged rums. Aged for several years in oak barrels, it is distinguished by its accomplished maturity and aromatic complexity superior to that of the VO. Designed for enthusiasts seeking finesse as well as for the curious wishing to discover the nuances of Guadeloupe rums, this VSOP highlights the art of aging by Bonne-Mère.
Its bright amber color with copper highlights announces an elegant nose, dominated by notes of vanilla, dried fruits and blond tobacco, enhanced by delicate woody and spicy touches. On the palate, the ample and velvety texture reveals a beautiful harmony between sweetness and power, with flavors of melted caramel, honey, toasted hazelnut and cocoa. The finish, long and balanced, stretches on nuances of toasted oak and sweet spices, offering a refined persistence. This VSOP is the perfect expression of the DBM style: an elegant, precise and generous rum.
