How does this rum taste?
Bold, fruity, olive-driven clairin
If you already like high-ester whites or Haitian clairins, this is a must-try: it pushes olive, fruit and sugarcane intensity while staying surprisingly balanced for the ABV.
Those new to rum, sensitive to 55% ABV, or who dislike briny, olive-driven and funky profiles in favor of smooth, sweet, vanilla-led sippers.

i cannot stress enough that the olive notes mentioned are not the typical canned/jarred variety. in fact, each of the notes listed above taste as fresh and organic as one could imagine in a spirit. despite what i have seen and heard from others, i do not pick up on many floral or grassy notes, but this is made up for by the creamy, peppery, citrusy garden of tropical arrangements, with a generous herbaceous quality. the finish is long, silky, and evolving. i am struggling to find anything more to ask for.
I love this Clairin. It bursts with fruit and a touch of brine. Full mouth feel and long finish. Definitely something special.
Perhaps the most balanced and fruity of the clairins I've tasted. There's clearly a touch of olive and funk, but above all beautiful fruit, perhaps apricot and mirabelle plum in addition to banana, mingling with a hint of vegetal, and some sweet vanilla flavors. A sprinkling of spices to keep things interesting, and paf!
Premier Clairin quebje teste. Celui-ci propose un nez très surprenant. Comme un joli mélange entre un pur jus agricole et mélasse jamaïcaine. Du fruit (beaucoup et bien mûr), de la colle, de l'olive, du citron, de la canne. Très frais. Impression confirmée en bouche où je retrouve précisément ces marqueurs. C'est étonnant et drôlement bien fait !
