Takamaka Le Clos Napa Laz (53.4%)

Takamaka Le Clos Napa Laz is a bold and expressive limited-edition rum from the Seychelles, released as part of Takamaka’s prestigious Le Clos Series. This series is dedicated to showcasing the distillery’s most distinctive and uncompromising spirits, produced in small batches with a strong focus on origin and raw material.
Napa Laz is made entirely from fresh sugarcane juice, sourced from local, non-hybrid cane varieties grown near the distillery on Mahé Island. Unlike Takamaka’s molasses-based rums, this expression highlights the pure, vibrant character of sugarcane in its most natural form. The rum is unaged and bottled at a robust 53.4% ABV, preserving intensity, texture, and aromatic depth.
On the nose, Napa Laz is bright and aromatic, with notes of fresh cane, citrus zest, green herbs, and subtle mineral tones. The palate is powerful yet precise, showing lively grassy notes, exotic fruit, peppery spice, and a distinctive savoury edge. The finish is long and persistent, marked by minerality, gentle heat, and lingering freshness.
True to the Le Clos philosophy, nothing is added or taken away: no sugar, no filtration, and no compromise. Takamaka Le Clos Napa Laz is a rum for enthusiasts seeking purity, intensity, and a clear sense of place. Best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to fully explore its complexity.
