How does this rum taste?
The New Grove Savoir Faire - Small Batch rum originates from the Grays distillery in Mauritius, selected by The Nectar. Distilled in 2005 from molasses and aged for 12 years, this rum features a complex blend of licorice, coconut, menthol, banana, and caramel on the nose, with a 50% ABV. Its taste profile includes strong notes of licorice and menthol, accented by fruity sparkles of apricot and peaches. User reviews highlight its pleasantly fresh, woody, and fruity character, with a medium-long finish. Although some find it lacking in depth, others praise its price-to-quality ratio and aromatic variety, making it a noteworthy choice among Mauritian rums.

Liquid Leuven 2025 Pleasantly surprised by this one. Price quality rum!
25/01/2025: tasted @ Liquid Leuven in "De Hoorn". Pleasantly surprised by this one! Good nose and the palate reminded me of a TDL. Very good price to quality ratio. Makes me curious about other rums from New Grove or Mauritius.
12.06.2020 Relaxing over a nice lunch with friends and family and a few rums. Notes Medium dark colour. Nose Fresh, wood, vegetal, tropical fruits, herbs, light mint, faint caramel. Palate Round, fresh, fruity, mango, spice, herbs, balanced, light wood, faibt roasted. Finish Medium long, wood, light fruits, light mint. Extra note Add a bit of water and a lot if herbal notes are released.
Very pleasant with a nice length in the mouth. Just give it time to open up and you have a nice fruit salad!
