    #5187 29.03.2025 Running through some samples at home. Nose Light wood, sweet, citrus, light roasted, vegetal, light sugarcane, faint caramel. Palate Oily, balanced, round, vegetal, sugarcane, medium spicy, dried fruit, citrus, light wood, faint roasted. Finish Long, oily, round, light wood, dates, spice, citrus, sugarcane. Empty glass Sugarcane, caramel, spice, light dried fruit.

    Le nez présente une jolie couleur dorée. Le nez est l'un des plus envoûtants que j'ai pu sentir sur un Martiniquais. Malgré ses 9 ans en fût de bourbon, il a gardé tous les marqueurs d'un excellent rhum blanc et c'est désarmant. Citron vert avec son zeste, herbe fraîche, jus de canne gorgée de soleil. On se croirait avec un ti punch. C'est gourmand et frais avec un fruité puissant et ce poivré typique de l'île. À tomber à la renverse ! En bouche, là encore cette canne fraîche, ce poivré et ce côté herbacé qui se mêle à la vanille. L'intégration de l'alcool est excellente. Un second trait révèle des arômes de khumkat avec un léger côté fumé et pimenté. Un délice et on est surpris agréablement par ce rhum qui sort de l'ordinaire. La finale est moyennement longue et toujours sur cette gourmandise de bonbon aux agrumes, toujours aussi fruité et épicé avec un léger boisé qui pointe le bout de son nez, mêlé à une réglisse rafraîchissante.

    Sweet and caramel nose with some citrus, wood, roasted hazelnuts and vegetal. The palate is full-bodied with noble wood, vanilla, caramel/pastry cream, some sweet fruit (dates), some bourbon notes, light spice (pepper) and some savoriness, all extremely rounded. The finish is delicate if lingering; it seems to have 40°. In the empty glass fermented and cane. The rating fluctuates between 9 and 9.1

    J'aime beaucoup le nez qui conserve ses marqueurs de rhum blanc avec une belle touche de violette en plus. Par contre, la bouche manque de gourmandise avec un zeste et un côté terreux trop marqué à mon goût.
