Velier, the man behind some of the rum world's most legendary bottlings, turned his attention to Haiti, and the result was a rum aged in casks from the iconic, now-closed Caroni distillery.
Expert Description
Providence Haiti Pure Single Rum 2019 is a Haiti Rum, distilled from sugar cane juice and sugar cane syrup on a copper Müller pot still with a bain-marie water bath and aged 3 years, bottled at 52%.
The rum is bottled by Velier in collaboration with Providence, the small distillery in Port-au-Prince, and matured in casks from the legendary, now-closed Caroni distillery in Trinidad. The distillation process with a bain-marie water bath produces an unusually pure and crystal-clear distillate character, allowing the sugar cane juice's pure expression to take centre stage.
The result is a complex, aromatic rum that develops from fresh, tropical tones to a deeper, more oriental spiced finish.
