Despite the relative low ABV this is a very nice and well balanced rum with lots of flavour. Fruity with light wood and nuts and some caramel on the palate. The palate is oily and I really like the nutty note. In the empty glass i can pick up light licorice and chocolate.
Le nez est mielleux : Boisé/épicé/vanillé/fruits secs/caramel au beurre. Le nez est équilibré, tirant sur la fraîcheur. En bouche, l’attaque est tout en douceur comme un velouté. Réglisse, boisé, chocolat noisette, crème au caramel et des agrumes sont au programme. C’est long en bouche : Boisé-épicé-toasté Conclusions : c’est un beau produit, on est clairement dans le haut du panier des vieux agricoles. Il est un digne représentant de ce terroir martiniquais de par son équilibre maitrisé.
Un rhum très fin et rond. Une belle longueur et une belle accroche malgré la réduction. C'est très gourmand.
Interesting but not quite integrated nose. Chocolate and wood in the mouth. A bit of hot burn so not as smooth as other Rhums but pleasant medium length finish. Cognac undertones and a bit of agricole flavour in the nose. Drinks strong for the ABV as well. It’s perfectly fine but not a standout
