Transcontinental Rum Line Haiti 2004

, ,

Transcontinental Rum Line Haiti 2004 was distilled in 2004 in Port au Prince and bottled in 2018. It is rare to see rums from Haiti at full proof from a single cask. Fortunately we have been able to acquire a limited allocation of this unique expression.

Gift presentation box included.

Tasting Notes: The pulpy initial nose is characterized by notes of agave and brioche. Slightly earthy, it becomes juicy, waxy, spicy with nutmeg and chocolatey. The elegant palate is fruity and fresh with plums. Enveloped in honey, the mid-palate is extremely spicy. The generous palate invites you with delicious flavours of a custard tart. A handful of peony and white lilac aromas appear as you breathe out.

Transcontinental Rum Line Haiti 2004 is part of the the TCRL brand from La Maison & Velier. Launched in 2016, this new brand of rum has seduced lovers of barrel proof and high-end rum.

The Transcontinental Rum Line or TCRL is inspired by historic voyages of rum casks between the New World and the Old Continent (Europe). From the beginning of its production, rum has always been shipped to Europe for nautical, economical and technical reasons. 

  • Nautical, because it permitted to avoid stagnant water consumption during long transatlantic crossings.
  • Economical, since the angel share is lower and the rum matures more smoothly.
  • Technical, because the know-how of Cognac and Scotland’s cellar masters plus the diversity of barrels allowed to create unique expressions.

For the sake of transparency, each bottling of the series displays its proportion of aging in continental climate.
