Providence Haitian Pure Single Rum

This was the odd one out and also a huge surprise. Considering the price tag you get a lot for your money. I found out that it needed to rest for at least 15 minutes and at 30 minutes the flavours just come at you. Intense and fruity with nice spices and cane. I really like the floral note from nose to finish and even the empty glass was wonderful after a while. Loking forward to our S.B.S and Silver Seal tasting next week.

Very drinkable. Pleasant sweetness of flambé fruits and cinnamon sugar, lots of floral notes, subtle spices, light medicinal notes, probably from the Caroni barrel. Really tasty and balanced, for an even higher rating it would still need more depth.

Surprising how much caroni influence here after only 3 years gets the upper hand over the Haiti rum! Beautiful thing! Great complexity. Slightly acidic fruity, plus some wood, burnt rubber, menthol and dark bitter chocolate and charcoal with burnt rosemary. Overall, however, it could still have a little more power to me and has a slightly too short finish. In particular, I find just under 100 € for a 3y young rum from Haiti (caroni barrel or not) a bit excessive...

A Haitian rum with an atypical profile. We feel at first the woody and spicy aromas, then notes of candied fruits and sugar cane before a very long floral and vegetal salvo on medicinal and grassy notes. The influence of the Caroni cask is light but smoky aromas are also present. An original profile that goes in all directions. The palate concentrates once again the spicy, spicy and woody notes as well as the vegetal flavors of the sugar cane. We also discern notes of tobacco, coffee and nuts. The finish is quite long and reminds us of Caroni with its smoky, almost terpenic notes, as well as rubber. We also find the menthol which brings, with the sugar cane, a lot of freshness. Spices, herbs, wood and dried fruits finalize the aromatic bouquet.a nice first try for this young distillery, which takes advantage of the barrel especially on the finish. The quality / price ratio remains however questionable for a 3 years old rum.

WoW 🤤 I found this cool bottling in my fovorite bar in Wroclaw. A nice rum from Providence with a cool Caroni finish. In my opinion, both harmonizes excellently together and the Caroni barrel does not overtune the main character of the rum. I have to buy a bottle for myself.

So I can not quite understand the hype. Me too little Clairin character, perhaps by the Caroni barrel. But if I would at least taste the barrel only at all somehow out ... Unfortunately, absolute Fehlanzeige.Bin probably yet a peasant palate. 🤣🙈 And stay with my honest Clairins from Casimir. 😋😉

Aging for 3 years leaves on the one hand the fruity and vegetal note of the crystalline bleau cane and on the other takes a spicy and medicinal part derived from the caroni cask, which, however, does not give much aromaticity to the product!

Has little to do with young wild Clairin. Rather like a very young Caroni without edges and corners.I like very well with longer storage is here certainly much more air to the top.In the 2nd tasting clearly immature and inconsistent. Devaluation to 80 points.

Seems still a bit immature and I'm not sure if the Caroni barrel was the last word here. Potential is definitely there. I liked the first released white rum of this young distillery. Liked the floral nose and fruity hints here. With nice banana on the palate and an interesting mix on the finish. The barrel notes can be recognized make for me the rum but not better, here is certainly potential for more.

A young savage. I like it quite well.

I really have to stop the clairins and rums from Haiti aged at velier with the marketing that goes with it... (Caroni cask, Muller stills, etc.). It's not really a style I like but I like them white though. This one is vegetal and spicy, super spicy in the mouth even. Very little complexity. Glad I tasted it but it confirms that these are really bottles I won't buy.

Addendum: during the tasting, I found the influence of the Caroni cask still quite weak. But after a while, you can smell it very clearly in an empty glass.

With Clairin has for me not really what to do... I would rather locate it as a light entry towards Caroni, which I actually like. For me, the rum is somehow not coherent, too bad

Very great round nose and nice taste. Very herbal and woody bitter finish. The Caroni influence is very subtle and makes the product very round. I really like it, as it makes for a good daily sipper that also scores with complexity.

I cannot taste Caroni here. I miss the typical fruity Haitian note. Perhaps the barrel has hidden the fruity tones.
