    Le nez du Belize, vanille, coco et chocolat au lait. En bouche, une vraie impression de blend Belize - New Grove. Le nez est toujours la, mais avec une trame typique du New Grove qui vient s'y rajouter. Finale en peu en dessous. Un excellent rhum, surtout pour un fan des deux provenances pré-citees.

    Nez extrêmement flatteur sur la vanille, le bois er tout particulièrement le fût de chêne voire même les fruits tropicaux. Bouche très forte mais qui débouche sur une explosion de saveurs, bonbon, sucre et quelle rondeur !! Finale sur une légère amertume et le vernis à ongle, certainement dû à l’ouverture de la bouteille.

    Un rhum extrêmement gourmand, pâtissier et vanillé. La puissance est maîtrisée et l'alcool bien intégré. C'est très plaisant. Les epices et la puissance contrebalancent la gourmandise, permettant d'éviter l'écœurement. Très belle cohérence entre le nez et la bouche. Honnêtement, c'est une bonne surprise.

    Le nez est extrêmement gourmand, sur le caramel, la coco, le chocolat et la vanille. Des légères notes de boisé et de solvants rehaussent le caractère de ce nez. Impossible de deviner les 65% avec toute cette rondeur. En bouche c'est le pamplemousse qui attaque et le nez ne predisait pas ça du tout. Ensuite on reviens sur les mêmes notes gourmandes que le nez. La finale est longue sur la vanille, le bois et le pamplemousse ultra dominant. C'est délicieux, on peut passer 30 minutes sur quelques gouttes.
