The Le 1802 Monte Cristo rum is a supremely exotic pot-stirring of intricately woven flavors. Predominantly pineapple scents intertwined with rich esters meet an aftertaste of sweet, grassy olive.

„2ie tastingA nose and a mouth ultra candy banana olive. Much rounder than at the opening. Very pleasant in the end! 1st tastingSurprising. A lot of ester. A taste similar to baijiu (Chinese strong alcohol of rice). Interesting but not to my taste.“

„I hope you like ripe pineapple because it is very strong on the nose and in the mouth. A herr de savanna that has rested 15 years in stainless steel tanks is mystical! If you like finesse and balance go elsewhere, this rum is nothing but exuberance!“

„It's kinda crazy. You can love it or hate it. I still haven't decided yet. But for sure it's very interesting, intriguing and very complex. Aroma of pineapples, salt, olives with a lot of esters, nail polish and solvent but also a hint of marzipan. The taste is very difficult. Slightly sweetish with a grassy character and a rough and a bit sharp finish.“
