Velier Casimir & Vaval & Sajous & Le Rocher Clairin Communal Blend des Quatres Communes

Nice white rum! Great to drink mixed and neat. Price under 30 euros make it a great choice! Less aggresive than the other clairins it is probably the most lovable along with Sajous.

Great value for money rum

Brussels Rhum Festival 15/03/2025 Vegetal. Would love to taste this as a mixer.

the Communal brings a nice citrus freshness, besides herbs and floral notes. On the palate, unfortunately, a bit watery, more ABV would have been good here. Does not quite come up to the Sajous (alone).

Really good quality for price, complex and fresh. Punch above its abv. You can taste the "Terroir", it is floral & a bit earthy, really complex. Clairins are really unique and got this one for 23€ so really happy about the quality of the juice

Beautiful Clairin at a top price.Perfect mix of different Clairin styles!

Oh yes, very nice. Super fresh and fruity, as if freshly squeezed in front of you. Continues in the mouth paired with a nice sweetness. Admittedly a little thin but a great flavor profile. Reminds me a little of Williams pears. The finish remains fresh, mild and fruity. Nice piece

Magnifique avec des huîtres.

The nose is Agricole pure, then in the taste candied citrus dipped in chamomile tea. Makes the whole seem a bit "dirty". The finish is quite medicinal.

Vous ne goûterez que très rarement ce profil qui va tirez sa ressemblance tantot avec du grand arome, tantôt avec de l'agricole. On a de la tapenade d'olives, de la canne et des fruits fermentés avec des notes fumées (+++) et beurrées.

Tasted at the UK RumFest, and not a fully in depth tasting - overall impressions were that it’s a very smooth rum and the blending of the four Clairins averages out some of the quirkier smells and tastes which makes it more readily approachable. It was smooth and would be great in a daiquiri. The woman on the Velier & LMDW stand was great, really knowledgeable and clearly enthusiastic about their rums.

Next, and for today the last Clairin. In any case, the nose is again very herbal, as well as slightly fruity, especially citrus fruits. The palate is also herbal, but also grassy and floral again.

#5111 15.02.2025 Running a few samples at home. Nose Fresh, sugarcane, lightly sweet, vegetal, fruits, light citrus, light grass. Palate Fresh, sweet, round, faint smoke, light grass, fruits, light olive, light salt, spice, light herbal, oily. Finish Medium long, fresh, round, oily, light citrus, light olive, light salt, light herbal. Empty glass Lemon, light grass, sugarcane, light floral.

Catchy, but somehow too tame for a real Clairin! A few percent are clearly missing

Clairin united and unseasoned. Sounds exciting and it is. In the nose predominates sugar cane and fruit, on the palate then clearly more floral and also spicy with some medicine in the finish.mit Sicherheit ne interesting variant in cocktails.
