    I'm discovering (almost, only one precedent) Madeira with these new bottlings from Le Gus't. I was a little worried about the ageing in Madeira wine casks, I must admit. Well, not at all. It's great. Beautiful agricultural nose with a touch of candied fruit on aeration. The woodiness doesn't take up all the space. On the palate, it's certainly vinous, with the barrel after the finish, but it's very greedy, very well-balanced and the woodiness is rather fine. I found it very good, at a very affordable price for its age and quality. Bravo to this bottler once again.

    A very floral, unusual nose, with candied fruit cake, light varnish, rose and vegetal notes. Full-bodied on the palate, with a balance of fruity, floral notes and fine oak. A fairly long finish where the rose 🌹 stands out and finishes on notes of passion fruit. In the empty glass, woody aromas stand out. A very fine rum. Thanks Rodolphe for the sample.

    A real highlight from Madeira!

    A wonderful rum. The people at Le Gus't have made a very good choice. Lots of brandy in the taste. Toasty, toasted aromas, apricot pits, married with Agricole. Even demerara notes on the nose. A flavor profile I didn't know before. Fun to drink.
