We are celebrating autumnal flavours with a very tasty October rum box from Northern Ireland.

The Copeland Grand Cru Bordeaux Limited Edition Series is a blend of 3-5year aged rum from Barbados and double distilled pot-still rum produced in the Copeland Distillery. After a 336-hour fermentation, the spirit passes through 2 copper-pot stills; Betty, a 600L wash still, and Hessie, our 500L spirit still, before a precise heads cut is taken for optimum taste and balance. 

The carefully selected Barbados rum has been aged in bourbon barrels, with our own Copeland rum aged in Quarter Bourbon casks. After 8 months we have transferred the spirt to 8 x Premier One, French grand cru Bordeaux casks to finish for a period of four months. The flavour profiles drawn out of the French oak are deliciously robust and full.

TASTING NOTES

Palate: Perfect balance of toasted and roasted notes, sweet spices (vanilla, cinnamon). The wood is perfectly integrated, and the finish is clean and long.

VSOP translates to ‘VERY SUPERIOR OLD PALE’

Saint James sugarcane plantations are located East on the mountainside, a specifically humid area where the cane is ‘fresh’, meaning the juice will taste of fresh cane juice. Saint James rhums are produced by the fermentation of pure cane juice followed by distillation in Creole columns. Each stage of Saint James rhum production in the distillery is designed to minimise the impact on the environment. The harvest runs from March till the end of July. During the “campaign” the distillery is smoking 5 days a week. At Saint James the fermentation is quick in order to preserve all the naturality of the freshly cut sugar cane. In 48 hours, a “cane wine” around 5% ABV is produced. For the distillation traditional creole columns are used. A lot of congeners and esters in the new rhum are left and is why agricole is always very aromatic compared to light rum. A tropical ageing and a bottling is mandatory for the AOC Martinique:Rhum VSOP: minimum 4 years.
