Rum Depaz Hors d'Age Port Cask Finish
Depaz Hors d’Âge Port Cask Finish is a refined aged rhum agricole from Martinique, combining the distinctive character of fresh sugar cane juice with the rich influence of a Port cask finish.
Produced by Distillerie Depaz, this expression brings together Martinique’s long tradition of agricole rum production and an additional maturation that adds fruity richness and complexity.
Aged Rhum Agricole with Port Cask Influence
Unlike traditional molasses-based rum, rhum agricole is distilled from fresh sugar cane juice. This gives Depaz its recognisable aromatic profile, combining fresh cane character with fruit, herbs and spice.
The Port cask finish adds another dimension, introducing ripe red fruit, dried fruit and wine-like sweetness alongside the rum’s mature oak character.
Rich, Fruity and Complex
On the nose, expect an elegant combination of sugar cane, ripe fruit and vanilla, followed by dried fruit, spice and oak.
The palate is rich and structured, with red fruit, dried fruit, vanilla and warming spices complementing the more vegetal and cane-driven character of the agricole rum. Mature wood provides depth and balance.
The finish is long and warming, with lingering fruit, spice and oak.
A Refined Martinique Sipping Rum
Depaz Hors d’Âge Port Cask Finish is particularly interesting for whisky and rum enthusiasts who enjoy exploring the influence of different cask types.
Best enjoyed neat in a tasting glass, allowing the rum to rest for a few minutes so its combination of agricole character and Port cask influence can fully develop.
