„Fresh, yet quite expressive. Unfortunately, on the palate with a little alcoholic sting.“

„A roundup of citrus and a mixture of herbs and plant part that reminds me much more of a white than an aged rum!You can feel all the Bologne cane here!I just would have liked a little more complexity!“

„A fairly young Guadeloupean rum that offers many fruity notes on the nose, notably citrus, woody, spicy and floral notes, but above all a soft framework of sugarcane, honey and brioche for a pleasant pastry side. The alcohol is very well integrated on the palate, with floral and vegetal aromas taking center stage before revealing dried fruit and citrus. There are also woody and spicy notes, notably hazelnut and nutmeg. The finish is of medium length, concentrating on sugarcane, floral and vegetal notes, with a sensation of gentle warmth. A rum that has a lot to offer for its young age, but whose quality/price ratio remains questionable compared to other vintages.“

„On the nose restrained fresh citrus with hints of olive and sugar cane !The palate is initially very mild, soft and sweet. Then it switches to the herbal, slightly herbaceous to finally end in the spicy! Fruit I no longer perceive!The finish is medium long and continues the palate!A good rum that would have needed some more maturity!Amazing with the tropical maturation.“

„Still seems quite young for the 7 years of tropical aging. A lot of green (green peppers, herbs) on the nose. In addition, fruity notes of orange and lime, and something sweet in the background (syrup, candy). Peppery on the palate, herbs, young wood, lime on the finish. Bottom line, not quite my preferred profile.“

„Au nez très végétal, on sent l’alcool mais dérange pas, relativement bien intégré. J’ai un peu la trame fût neuf, solvant / colle à bois. Citron, zeste d’orange, vanille. En bouche j’ai l’amertume du bois style la trame fût neuf / mini fût (nos vieillissement maison) mais c’est équilibre avec les fruits / agrumes. La finale l’amertume du bois revient prendre le dessus.“
