How does this rum taste?
This limited-edition Haitian rum intrigues with a harmonious blend of vegetal and "dirty" notes, enriched by a sherry cask's fruity and buttery touch. While some find the spices and perfumed wax overbearing, others relish its complex tropical fruitiness and almond sweetness. A daring experiment, its wild vigor is softened by aging, revealing a short but pleasant finish, sipped with mixed receptions regarding its lingering spice and woodiness.

“What can I say about this mix...it amazed me! You can feel the vegetal part of the vaval and there are the "dirty" scents characteristic of casimir joined by the sherry cask which gives it a nice fruity and buttery note! A really successful experiment!”

“A nice surprise! A clairin that takes a completely different turn with this sherry. A nice complexity, roundness, slightly spicy and roasted notes thanks to the sherry. We keep nevertheless this floral side of the clairin with licorice and relatively young fruits. A rather long finish without being interminable. A good value for money in my opinion!”

“Not bad on the nose. Greedy behind a very present vegetal frame. On the palate however I am quite disappointed. There are spices to broth of kitchen which are really too present and not very pleasant. I didn't like this rum.”
