How does this rum taste?
The Clairin Vieux Casimir rum, crafted in Haiti and selected by Velier, is distilled from cane juice in 2016 and aged 5 years. Bottled at cask strength with a 47.5% ABV, it blends intriguing notes of sugarcane, olive, and young wood with earthy and tropical fruit flavors.

Despite varied opinions, users note its subtle complexity compared to typical Clairin distillates.

On the nose, it goes in the direction of an Agricole VSOP and is not as "dirty" as I know Clairin otherwise. In the taste then come through rather notes that I already had with many Clairin, eg olive. Somewhat earthy. Downright charred in the finish. In the finish comes roasted banana.
I had so many expectations in this rum but I was very disappointed! Very flat in flavor and gives you little emotion, plus all the special features that unaged casimir has here I find them very little! Really a great pity!
Erwachsener und milder als ungelagerte Clairins. Sehr spannend - insbesondere am Gaumen sehr schön und entspannt, gleichzeitig spannend
I like it quite a lot. Less the typical Clairin notes on the nose, but rather floral, perhaps also aniseed. On the palate, the cask comes through a little more strongly, but still a good balance to the earthy notes and a slight (honey) sweetness. I would describe the cask maturation experiment as a success here (which has not worked out very well with other Clairins)
