“I have a problem with this rum: I can't decide whether I like it or not. Every time I taste it, I get a new impression. The nose is always more or less the same: grapes, wood, spices. You can tell it's an agricultural wine. On the palate, the grape is very present. The woodiness is strong. The rum is dry and heavy. It's halfway between an agricole and some of Guyana's molasses. But I often find it very unpleasantly bitter. The bitterness of grape skins. It's frustrating because when I don't have that sensation, I love its power. The rum clearly benefits from VERY long aeration. Edit: very woody and bitter finish. Decidedly, hard to make up one's mind. Edit edit: oxidation is this bottle's friend! Edit edit edit: farewell. I would have loved you anyway! That woody farmer!”

“More on the dry, astringent side.”

“Very dark, smoky, glue-laden and the first few minutes almost sweat-like on the nose. 🙈 Then comes through something like juniper, menthol, leather saddle, tobacco, honey and chocolate. Almost Armagnac artig and very dry and Holzbetont. Not necessarily mine but sow exciting!”
