History Originally, Grima was a port on the Garonne located in Cadaujac, the birthplace of Maison Mounicq. It used to be used as a river stopover for Graves wines bound for Bordeaux. With its strong wine-growing and naval past, the Gironde capital has contributed greatly, for centuries, to the spread of rum in the metropolis. His story largely inspired the Nadé brothers in the development of their rum: thus Grima was born. Embark on a journey to exotic destinations and let yourself be carried away by these tastings. Named in homage to the emblematic fish of Reunion Island, the Manta Ray, in Latin Mobula, this vintage highlights a collaboration between Bordeaux and Reunion terroir! DESIGN Melasses: Red wood Origin: Savanna Distillery / Reunion Distillation: In column Refining: 9 months / ex Sauvignon Blanc barrel from Château Vieux Fournay / Lussac St Émillion Aging: 7 months / reconditioned bourbon barrel Chain: Dynamic / Continental / Floirac (33) Reduction: Spring water Specificity: no coloring / no added sugar / not cold filtered Aromatic profile This collaboration between Reunion and the Bordeaux terroir gives birth to a sweet and balanced rum although it has an alcohol content of 47.6°. On the nose, aging in an old Sauvignon Blanc barrel gives notes of nuts and honey. After aeration, it reveals subtle notes of milk chocolate which invite tasting. On the palate, the attack is frank and fresh, revealing a beautiful balance between citrus and exotic fruits, such as mango. The finish is harmonious, with mineral and slightly spicy notes which prolong this tasting with subtlety and indulgence. Tasting advice To be enjoyed pure, at room temperature, to fully appreciate its aromas. For a gourmet pairing, favor regional pairings and combine it with a sausage rougail for example.
