“Starting from the fact that you cannot compare white rums with aged rums for obvious organoleptic reasons, this clairin sajous is really crazy! I currently prefer them to their aged version. Rich in esters, olive, mineral (tastes like the sea) and complex. Magic!!! I could give much more if there was a distillation between white and amber rums.”

“C’est toujours un moment passionnant avec les clairins sajous. La fermentation sauvage apporte une telle différence de caractère que chaque année puissent être des rhums totalement différentes. Celui-ci est l’un des années bons, même si il est peut être un peu trop sec pour le goût de certains. Très savoureux et très buvable, même pur. Je l’ai mis sur la batterie des cocktails classiques aussi: Ti-punch: 3/5 Daiquiri: 3/5 Donga punch: 4/5 Rum sour: 5/5 (sérieusement, une des meilleures testé à ce jour, au même niveau que les rum sours fait avec Foursquare où Savanna) Très aimable.”
