    How does this rum taste?

    The Grand Arôme Baie du Galion by Le Galion Distillery in Martinique is a unique expression captured by Latitudes. Distilled from molasses at 60% ABV, it surprises with an intriguing bouquet including metallic, glue, and pineapple notes. The taste profile extends to iodine, olive, and a touch of sweetness, delivering intense complexity. Lovers of distinct offerings are drawn to its complex, yet vibrant character, comparing it favorably to traditional Martinique and island rums. While noted for its aromatic intensity, a few felt it was overpowering, akin to fermented sugar cane flavors.

    Hui... a really extraordinary rum, in the nose, in taste and in general. Who is looking for something extraordinary is right here. I have never drunk a rum like this before. This rum is something for connoisseurs, very complex. I drank the rum pure and felt the full force 😵. Long finish with some sweetness out the back. Even in Ti Punch incredibly complex, not to be compared with the usual brands from the island of Martinique. I think this rum would also be what for the friends of Caroni and Co. what. 🥃

    deutlich süffiger, aber auch weniger komplex wie der fine drams galion grand arome. dennoch sehr lecker. Hauptsächlich ananas, Banane, Sesam-Honig, Karamellbonbon und dunkle Schokolade mit fleur de sel. dazu schöne Oliven Noten die alles gut ergänzen. im daiquiri dominieren Olive, Heu und metallische Noten, sowie unreife Ananas und Kakao mit Salz. insgesamt gefällt mir der fine drams aber noch besser!

    Für mich ein perfekter Galion!

    A great successful aroma blending red and tropical fruits with indelible markers/glue and varnish. It's round and powerful at the same time. They know how to do everything in Martinique.
