Description

An Exceptional Cuban Rum, Alluring in its Richness and Complexity

The Birth of Cuban Excellence: Eminente Rum

In the heart of the Cuban landscapes, the historical cradle of the world's finest rums, the Eminente distillery is part of an ancestral tradition of spirit production. This rich land, steeped in history, music, and flavors, is the stage for the creation of an exceptional rum. The imprint of Cuba can be felt in every sip, echoing the authenticity and passion that animate the distillery.

Eminente Gran Reserva Edition N°1: A Cuban Tribute

Eminente Gran Reserva Edition N°1 is a testament to Cuban ingenuity. Conceived by César Marti, the island's youngest Maestro Ronero (Master Rum Maker), this Cuban rum stands out with a 10-year aging process, a mark of excellence. It reveals itself through a perfect harmony between light rum and aguardiente. Unique, this first edition has the highest proportion of aguardiente among Cuban rums. Bearing the precious 'D.O.P. Ron de Cuba' label, it asserts itself as a guarantee of authenticity and quality, crowning the richness of Cuban heritage.

A Precise Elaboration

The creation of this Eminente Gran Reserva Edition N°1 is an art mastered to perfection. It all starts with the sugar cane, grown on the island, whose molasses is then fermented with Cuban yeasts. Column still distillation offers two major distillates: aguardiente and light Cuban rum.

Particularly aromatic, the aguardiente is aged in old white oak whiskey barrels, in a dry cellar where water evaporates faster than alcohol. Its harmonious rum blend, followed by an additional 10-year minimum aging with a 3-month finish in French oak barrels, gives this rum its vitality and unique aromatic depth.

During the maturation and blending process, a small amount of sugar is added to this Rum XO (up to 5g/L), a dosage well below the limit imposed by European regulations (20g/L).

Characteristics and Tasting Tips for Eminente's Gran Reserva Edition N°1 Rum

An Aromatic Symphony

Appearance
The eye is immediately captivated by a bright and luminous color.

Nose
The nose is seduced by its scents of freshly roasted coffee, red fruits, and flowers. These initial notes then give way to a sweet blend of honey, vanilla, and a surprising menthol freshness.

Palate
The palate experience is rich. It exhales nuances of dried apricot, orange blossom, followed by sandalwood, hazelnut, and Jamaican pepper. The finish, on the other hand, is generously long, punctuated by Sichuan pepper, caramel, pine sap, and a delicate hint of saffron.

An Eminente for Every Moment

To enhance its flavors, the Eminente Gran Reserva Edition N°1 is best enjoyed at room temperature, in a suitable glass, allowing for the optimal release of its aromas.

The Perfect Pairing

Its aromatic richness harmoniously pairs with sweet dishes such as a Tatin tart or a chocolate fondant, but also with savory dishes like duck breast with orange.

Mixology: The Art of the Cocktail

Although this rum is particularly enjoyed neat, its aromatic complexity also makes it a wise choice for refined cocktails such as the Old Cuban or a revisited Daïquiri.
