    What do you get when blending Jamaican rum, young Guyana pot still and Isla whisky, all continental aged? Right! Let’s do 5 Fijians. SBS 2009 57% Rasta Morris 2009 60,5% Old Brothers 2011 59,1% Old Brothers 2009 63,3% The Nectar 2009 60,5% C: Light gold. N: How can butter be delicious in rum? How can mild olive oil be delicious in rum? Esters, granny apples, celery (without the tough strings), cucumbers, green grapes and phenols. And this is a new one “sweet pepino”, and no, that’s not a blend of sugar and cucumber, it’s a fruits I used to eat when little. Also known as melon pear. M: Smoky and in-your-face but believe me, elegant for such a young Fijian. What a rum! Lots of lime and pineapple. F: Short but nice. B: Can someone sell me a bottle or two please. Mine is almost finish.

    Un super rum fruité, floral et gourmand. Original et très plaisant.

    Fiji simple mais efficace avec un alcool très bien intégré. Trame du début à la fin sur des fruits jaunes et exotiques, du beurre et un côté fumé. Très agréable malgré le haut degré. Un très bon rapport qualité prix.

    25.09.2019 Had a nice meet up with friends at this nice hotel near the airport. Notes Very light in colour. Nose Intense, faint wood, solvents, light floral, faint smoke, mineral, faint coffee. Alate Intense, oily, warm, faint wood, mineral, spice, citrus, faint coffee, light nutts. Finish Very long and warm, oily, fruits, light coffee, faint nutts.
