Vaval 2017 Single Sherry Cask 39 Month Old Rum Clairin Ansyen / Kate Perry

In 2015, The Spirit of Haiti built a small natural warehouse in Port au Prince. Over time, the warehouse has been filled with previously used casks, ranging from rum casks (like Caroni, Worthy Park and Bielle) to Cognac, Whisky and sherry casks from Bodegas Lustau. The barrels were then filled with fresh Clairin distilled by Michel Sajous, Fritz Vaval, Faubert Casimir and Le Rocher as experimental single cask releases to understand how Clairin develops in a very light aging process. The length of maturation is in months, not years, as the aging aims to retain the sense of raw material and soul of the spirit. These Ansyen - or “aged” casks represent a new chapter in the history of Clairin as they are among the first expressions to be aged in some of the most legendary barrels in the world. Clairin Ansyen Vaval 39 months #VA17OL-4 is a single cask selected by Kate Perry, US Market Manager for La Maison & Velier. #VA17OL-4 references the 2017 Vaval harvest, barreled on January 12th, 2017 and aged 39 months in ex-Oloroso sherry cask from Lustau Bodegas. It is one of the first expressions of this type and has been bottled straight from the cask at 50% abv.
