“Sugar cane juice of the 'cubana negra', 5-7 days fermentation, then off to the pot still. Sounds quite promising. Fresh, herbal notes on the nose (green peppers), plus banana, fruit brandy and lemongrass. Ricola herbal sweets on the palate, slightly spicy finish.”

“A new rum on the map for me. I know little from Ecuador. Made from fresh sugar cane juice with long fermentation, I expect it to be very similar to Clairin. Nose: oh yes, as expected. A blatantly honeyed-fruity-vegetable, fermented potpourri of aromas. Grassy green, also tending towards geraniums, green peppers, still green tomato and pickled artichoke along with overripe raspberries, kiwis and guava. It is indeed strongly reminiscent of Clairin. Definitely interesting. 7,8 Palate: intense. Clear green-grassy agricole notes. But also very intense soapy violet aromas with a slight saltiness. Pepperoni and still green, unripe papaya are added. The violet soap lingers for a long time. Interesting on its own but a challenge; it could do well in a daiquiri. 7,4 The 60% is noticeable, but is perfectly fine. An interesting drop!”

“I'm particularly excited about this rum, because I've never had an unaged Pure Sungle rum from Ecuador in my glass before. The nose shouts 'Clairin!!!' from a great distance. Which is confirmed up close. Amazingly well-integrated alcohol, watermelon, kiwi, gooseberries, freshly cut grass and gherkin water 😁. It's definitely great in an extravagant daiquiri! The palate is no longer so differentiated but again hardly any alcoholic sharpness! Fruity, grassy and slightly salty towards the finish. Green olives are added. Very good but not quite simple rum. I'm curious to see how it will do in a daiquiri.”
