Eminente – Gran Reserva Edition n°2 – 43.2%
The result of a dialogue between Cuban soul and French refinement, Eminente reinvents the world of traditional rum by bringing a touch of sophistication. Edition No. 2 of the Gran Reserva illustrates this ambition by linking Cuba and Bordeaux: a rum aged for ten years, then enhanced by a passage in Sauternes barrels. This unique refinement gives the cuvée an aromatic richness and a noble dimension, while respecting the authentic identity of Cuban rums.
A blend of eaux-de-vie patiently aged for ten years in oak barrels, this edition then benefits from several months of maturation in Sauternes barrels. This double aging enriches the classic Cuban structure with aromas of candied fruit, honey, and a sweet syrup. Bottled at 43.2%, this rum maintains its balance between freshness, intensity, and complexity, offering a refined sensory experience.
The nose opens with seductive notes of golden honey, ripe apricot, and tropical fruits, supported by the sweet delicacy brought by the influence of Sauternes wine. On the palate, the ample and velvety texture reveals a gourmet register: candied apricot, caramelized cane sugar, and fine spices. The finish, persistent and elegant, combines the syrupy roundness with the woody and spicy elegance typical of great aged Cuban rums. A sophisticated tasting rum, between tradition and creativity.
