Attention OVNI ! Les goûts qu'on trouve dans ce rhum sont peu fréquent : beacon, ketchup, barbecue... Pour ceux qui connaissent, ça rappelle le baijiu chinois : un alcool fort de riz. Fort en alcool (68,8), fort en ester (845), ce rhum n'est pas à mettre entre toutes les mains. Personnellement, c'est trop pour moi.

Olive, cave aged blue cheese, earth and some floral notes on the nose. Bubble gum showed up after 15 minutes Has that crazy juicy fruit gum flavor and finish for minutes. Sweet up front but very dry finish Doesn't drink like 68.8 at all!
