    How does this rum taste?

    The Vieux Casimir (First Release) is an intense Haitian rum distilled in 2015 from sugarcane juice using a pot still, and aged for 8 years. Bottled at cask strength with an ABV of 53.6%, it offers a complex aroma of floral, glue, and caramel notes followed by a flavorful mix of vegetal, citrus, and woody undertones. Reviewers have noted its unique combination of dried fruits and earthy characteristics, likening it to a blend of both whisky and sweet confectionery. While some appreciate its balance and depth, others mention its potent alcoholic presence and somewhat unconventional profile. This rum has sparked varied reactions, shining especially for those who favor unique and bold palate experiences.

    8,7:On the nose, the first impression we get is vegetal and fruity with a lot of esters, a whiff of glue.There are overripe tropical, dried fruits, herbal notes and hay.It is very round and balanced. The wood is roasted with nuts and caramel. On aeration citrus fruits arise, the pineapple is sweet and ripe, as the sugarcane mineral, the wood becomes earthy.There are creamy confectionery notes, the caramel is candied, the yoghurt is with dried fruits. 8,7:On the palate, the attack is malty, whisky like, estery with overripe tropical fruits like pineapple, some citrus with orange and vegetal with an olive, all sweet, creamy, delicious, covered with honey.The wood is spicy, dry, earthy and roasted with nuts, cream toffee, candied caramel. The sugarcane is mineral. Sometimes we get an impression of tasting fruit yoghurt.After some rest, more herbal notes and licorice are present. 8,7:The finish is sweet, dry, the sugarcane is mineral, juicy, herbal, the wood earthy and spicy, tropical fruits and citrus are ripe... Edit:24.8.25, a great complexity 👌

    Grundsätzlich gefallen mir die Rums aus Haiti sehr. Dieser Rum wurde im Vorfeld sehr gehyped. Er wird seinem Hype überhaupt nicht gerecht. Schon an der Nase sehr alkoholisch stechend, was sich am Gaumen, bis zum Abgang durchzieht. Dreckiges Peofil mit vergorenen hellen Früchten und Zitrone. Floral bitter.

    Schöne fruchtige Noten mit Ananas, überreifen Früchten und leichtem Fasseinfluss

    Etwas besser als die Schwesterabfüllung, aber der Burner ist das nicht.
