Private Garden n°1 is the Inaugural cuvée and the first bottling of Clos des Spiritueux . Fabien , founder of Clos des Millésimes, opened a new boutique 100% dedicated to spirits on September 15, 2022 . To celebrate, and with the precious help of Michael from Swell from Spirits , they created hand in hand a bottling for the occasion. Here is a 22 year old rum from the TDL distillery in Trinidad. The rum was distilled in 2000, aged 15 years in Trinidad and 7 years in the UK then bottled in June 2022. 356 bottles were produced. We are on a single cask and bottled at its natural strength of 57.5%.
Fabien's tasting comment: "We have worked for many months with Michael in order to offer a bottle that is a little different for this event which will only happen once, namely the accomplishment of several years of work with the opening of this pretty shop dedicated to spirits. So we needed a nice bottling. Michael is in my eyes a magician, a finder of nuggets with one of the most beautiful palates I know. From the first tasting, we and my team understood what we had to do with a remarkable rum. One of the most complex molasses rums that I know. With a good aeration and a few minutes in the glass we have there a juice with a multitude of aromas: red fruits whose blackcurrant, terrified notes, cocoa, roasted hazelnuts but also freshness with white mint.The balance is there, the alcohol perfectly integrated and a length...we enjoy each sip and each of come in she brings a renewal..."
This rum is available for free tasting in our new shop, the Clos des Spiritueux, which is located at 93 Quai de Bacalan in Bordeaux!
