- Description
- New Grove Emotion '1969' is a single-estate Mauritian rum blending vintages from 1969 to 2008, creating a spirit of considerable complexity and age. The nose presents green bananas, overripe pineapple, and coconut while the palate shifts to molasses, cinnamon, nutmeg, and woody notes—reflecting decades of tropical maturation. The texture is rich and warming, with a persistent spiced finish. Best enjoyed neat to appreciate the interplay of barrel character and fruit across its multi-vintage composition.
