How does this rum taste?
RumX members praise this Le Galion grand arôme for its dense, syrupy texture and a burst of overripe tropical and red fruits. Fermented and medicinal accents meet herbal/olive and light wood tones, with the 58.5% ABV nicely integrated. Reviewers highlight how short ageing in virgin oak amplifies character and value. A limited 170-bottle release that stands out for its bold, savory‑fruity profile. Well-rated by 45 RumX reviewers.

Finished bottle (T__T): totally won over by this bottle! I'm very interested in trying out other Galion aged rums! Bottle almost finished: it's become even rounder. For 2 years, I find it remarkable. It's not insanely complex, but it's very coherent. A very good bottle... 2nd tasting - after a quarter bottle Take some ripe exotic fruit Put them in a copper pan Add a large lump of butter and a little sugar Cook over a wood fire Flambé (with rum) Squeeze a small piece of lemon Now you can serve this superb Galion! 1st tasting it looks like fruit compote in a soda barrel.
What a cool drop. Thick molasses rum that drinks like syrup from the consistency. The palate is extremely complex and very special in its own way. The blueberry and strawberry I find very horny. The finish is no less complex. Meaty, bacony, smoky, licorice, medicinal. Very exciting profile. Especially for the two years of aging. Please more of it.
15.06.2022 A nice day running through samples at home. Notes Medium to dark in colour. Nose Light wood, balanced, fresh, light olives, apple, light citrus, fruity. Palate Medium intense, oily, light wood, olive, light salty, apple, light tannins, spice, faint medicinal. Finish Medium to long, warm, light oily, olive, light citrus, spice, fruits. Extra note. A brilliant example of what you can do with short aging in virtin oak.
Very interesting taste of "bompari".
