RENEGADE 2020/2023 - Habitation Velier

Special features: The Habitation Velier Renegade is a Pure Single Rum from Grenada, distilled from fresh sugarcane juice. The three-year aging took place in ex-French Oak and new American Virgin Oak barrels, resulting in remarkable complexity and depth. This limited release impressively showcases the characteristic aromatic density of the Habitation Velier series, which consists exclusively of Pot Still distillates.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Lush and full-bodied, with floral notes of dandelion, honeyed and medicinal hints of sage, and a vanilla scent. As it develops, exotic fruit notes of pineapple and kiwi unfold, underpinned by milky coconut and a touch of vetiver grass.
• Palate: Lively and smooth with a spicy start of menthol, curry, cardamom, and cinnamon. Ginger provides a hearty spiciness, while warm cane sugar syrup adds sweetness. In the mid-palate, vanilla beans combine with delicate bitter chocolate pieces, rounded off by a pleasant bitterness.
• Finish: Long and creamy with tannin-rich, fibrous notes of sugarcane. The salty aftertaste reveals a compote of apple, saffron, and autumnal hints of moss. A fine echo of artichoke hearts completes the tasting experience.

Distillery/Bottler: Habitation Velier is a project by Velier that specializes in Pure Single Rums. These are rums from a single distillery, distilled in pot stills, comparable to single malts in the whisky world. The distillery in Grenada delivers a vibrant rum that impresses with its high ester content and artisanal care. Velier, a renowned Italian bottler, is known for its careful selections and the promotion of authentic rum qualities.
