"It’s really nothing wrong with it, but it doesn’t appeal to me. By the way Pixan is Mayan and means “Spirit which gives life”. The nose is herbal and round with aromas of fruit and vanilla. At the palate the aroma comes back as flavors together with significant sweetness."

"Dégustation calendrier de l’avent. Ce rhum nous avait plu avec mon fils. Très bien équilibré et suave ! Puis le 8 juillet 2023 avec Baptiste qui n’aime pas du tout ! Effectivement très rond et caramel, ce n’est pas du rhum à l’état pur…"

"Nez très agréable, gourmand sur la vanille mêlée à la banane. En bouche on este sur les mêmes notes, assez plat mais pas désagréable."

"Artificial tasting, bitter aftertaste. Nose is a bit vegetal, not in a pleasant way."
