Another day another exceptional sample. The aroma of this sample is more fruity, with orange peel. The aroma of tobacco, wood, herbs and various medicinal aromas prevails here. In my opinion La Lune had better aroma. The taste is much more sharper than in the case of La Luna. There is a hint of vanilla, but the dominant flavors are fruit, mint, tar and strong cigar smoke. The finish is relatively long, with tobacco, herbs and spices predominating. Another great sample that will please the more experienced person, but if I have to choose, I would choose La Lune.
Un rhum dégusté au Spirits Museum. Un nez plutôt calme mais les arômes sont là, au début du fumé, beaucoup de bois et du goudron. Puis les fruits, surtout de l’ananas, transparaissent. L’entrée de bouche est étonnamment douce au vu de l’ABV au-dessus de 60%, un peu fermée au début, puis tout s’ouvre. Très fruité pour un 1997 et, surtout, l’atelier mécanique ne prend jamais le dessus. La finale est longue à souhait, marquée par le goudron, riche, équilibrée. Un très beau représentant du millésime.
