How does this rum taste?
- Rich woody aroma
- Smooth finish
- Complex flavor profile
Chamarel VSOP Rum is a premium spirit hailing from Mauritius, crafted using sugar cane juice and aged for five years. Distilled with both pot and column stills, this rum offers a predominantly woody aroma enriched with notes of vanilla, caramel, and dried fruits. Upon tasting, it presents a woody and peppery profile with hints of dried fruit and oak, but some find it overshadowed by an alcoholic sharpness. The finish is smooth yet delivers a subtle acidity that might appeal less to those preferring mellower flavors. While its creamy texture and complex nose are appreciated, the overall balance seems to divide opinions among enthusiasts.

"It’s too little of everything to really catch me. Weak aromas of fruit, wood, vanilla, butterscotch and herbs. At the palate the aromas is there as flavors with an ok balance between dryness and sweetness."

"Le nez est d'abord boisé. De la vanille également. Pas dingue. En bouche, le bois est dominant et puis une amertume mêlée d'acidité prend le pas. Raisin ou fût de cognac je pense. Malheureusement, ça marche moyennement bien. Très différent du XO que j'avais plutôt apprécié. Et clairement un ton en dessous."

"Gar nicht so mein Ding, da für das Alter noch viel zu unausgewogen und ruppig. Der Alkohol ist dominant, das ganze Destillat schmeckt medizinisch und unfertig."
