Providence Haitian Pure Single Rum

Nose is surprisingly „mature“ for the short time in the barrel. The cask seems to put in quite some work. Vanilla, honey and milk chocolate remind me of some virgin cask bottlings I have tried. All alongside some flowery notes. Pretty nice. On the palate notes are similar with honey and vanilla. Some fruits and candied ginger also show up alongside a cane juice sensation. Also pretty nice - pleasantly surprised by this one.

I like it almost a tick better than the 2019 caroni cask finish, as the actual Port Au Prince Haiti character and its terroir come across more naturally and unadulterated. Cinnamon, cocoa, raisin, dried kiwi and date, fresh sugar cane, roasted nuts and baked apple. Very round and harmonious! Whether it's worth €90 is another question...

I like it very much! Not so spicy/herbal, more wood and bitter almond.

Softer than the 2019 version. No more olive notes. Overall more reminiscent of a Jamaican than Haiti.

Slightly more straightforward than the previous release, but pleasantly accessible and delicious with notes of caramel, vanilla and milk chocolate, dried fruit, pepper and cinnamon. A highly recommended easy-drinking rum.

Fully respected the starting raw material i.e. crystalline sugar cane, one of the best and pure in the world! The ex-providence cask remains really unobtrusive and gives it some toasted and woody notes without covering the rest of the aromas! Too bad only for im finish that fades quickly!

I liked it, as a in-between of fresh and funky but also classic caramel and wood notes. Not enough to replace other favorites, but very good nonetheless.

Great sipping rum with very well integrated alcohol.

Wonderfully complex fruit aroma with a whole range of fruits. Somehow cinnamony on the palate with great spice. You wish you could feel more of the nose on the palate, but it's still a wonderful rum overall.

This Providence comes as a pleasant surprise. A pure juice in which the cane remains sensitive. The wood is present on both the nose and the palate. Notes of cinnamon and chocolate. Surprising length. I found it very appealing.

For only 3 years of maturation, it has become a well-rounded bottling. The alcohol is well integrated, slightly fruity, spicy and slightly sweet. Not particularly complex, but I'm curious to see what longer ageing will bring out of this vintage.

An excellent rum. Great value for money. Decent nose but a bit "light". On the palate, on the other hand, it is more assertive. Pleasant drink with a nice finish, not very long but still good. Alcohol integrated quite well. A rum to absolutely taste

Nose: bright. Lot of coconut & cinnamon. Orange, dry apricots, milk chocolate, honey, toasted wood, caramel, little bit of wax & esters. Taste: Dry. Bitter orange zest, toasted oak, ginger, almond (amigdaline), cinnamon, some dry fruits & touch of esters. Aftertaste: medium, with some medicine notes, little bit of esters, dry fruits, cinnamon & bitterness... Overall: nice rum, but not the perfect. I wanna more complex & more esters, for this money. Not best of price.

Light nose. Light fruit. Somewhat cinnamony on the nose. Sweet taste, nicely round and caramelly. Very pleasant. Medium to long finish. Pleasant rum but with a slight spiciness. Nice sipper.
