Flavour profile of Depaz
Most frequently mentioned flavors
RumX tasters value crystalline cane aromas, clean ferment notes and deft oak integration. Many highlight the excellent price‑quality of VSOP, the spiced‑vanilla elegance of XO, and the dry, complex Millésimes. Blancs like Cuvée des Alizés and Papao shine in Ti’ Punch yet sip well neat. Private/Single Casks earn praise for depth, with Port Cask finishes more polarizing but intriguing. Alcohol is often superbly integrated.
