    "This one also needs to rest for a good while because it's really intense. Not as fruity but fresh with lovely floral/Agricole notes. Dry, warm and intense on the palate and a very long finish."

    "Reminds me of sitting and eating olives in a nice garden during the summer months. Both in the nose and mouth. A very surprising rum."

    "Goûté au SoRhum Bordeaux donc pas les meilleures conditions possibles mais il aura fallu beaucoup nettoyer mon palais pour se séparer de ce rhum très olive en bouche. c'est fort et puissant. Végétal mais également sur la saumure. A goûter."
