Velier Casimir Clairin

"Clairin closer to Sajous in fact has more perfumed notes and is probably the most delicate of all the clairins I have owned.Not surprisingly, the Casimir aged gave excellent results.On the finish there is a slight peatiness mixed with medicinal after a while.Way to go Velier!"

"The nose is a bit too sugar cane heavy for my preference, but I really like the taste, especially the salty minty finish. Is something different."

"Lemon and minue make a delicious marinade for the bacon in the finish."

"A wonderfully pleasant, fresh and herbal clairin! Perfect neat and for mixing, the Ti Punch and Daiquiri are 1a."

"Number 4 from the community tasting. Thanks RumTaTa!This one is again more on the Jamaican side than the French. Ester and overripe fruits are there, just like fresh herbs and some cucumber.The mouth is also super fruity: citrus and very ripe yellow fruits, green notes keep very much in the background, to then strike again in the finish, but drier and less fresh than in the nose.For me, the best of the aged Clairin from today's Community Tasting."

"Sehr fruchtiger und runder Clairin der ordentlich Spaß macht. Perfekt für einen schönen Cocktail geeignet. Als mixer kann ich den wirklich empfehlen. Preis Leistung ist ebenfalls in Ordnung..........."

"25.04.2020 A nice evening out with colleagues and a local liquor shop presenting some nice bottles. Notes Transparent in colour. Nose Fresh, fruity, olive, light smoke, grass, citrus, light floral. Palate Fresh, warm, dried fruit, honey, light smoke, citrus. Finish Medium long, fruity, citrus, herbs, sugarcane."

"Thanks to RumTaTa. Also solid Clairin, but doesn't stand out in comparison and has to rank behind Sajous in my opinion."

"Very unusual, I find distinct aromas of resin and freshly sawn softwood on the tongue and finish."

"Back to the wonderful world of Clairin. The nose is delightful, real tropical fruit, strawberry and sugar with a backbone of floor polish - what’s not to like, a softer Mhoba in a sense. The mouth is less tamed and no surprise given the unaged profile and ABV. Smooth and encompassing mouth feel, with olive, marzipan and white pepper as well as a salty edge. It runs a fine line between too much kerosene and more tropical flavours. Finish is long and rewarding, sweet butterscotch with chilli and some more spice. It’s a complex and intense unaged rum but the best of the Velier Clairin’s to my tastes"

"The best of the Clairin I have tasted. No sipper, rather for mixing. Sipped the rest in a Daiquiri, that was very nice. "

"Une claque ce Clairin mais je lui préfère le Sajous 2018."

"J'avais déjà adoré le 2013 et celui ci a un ce petit côté eucalyptus qui le fait monter d'un niveau. Clairement une valeur sûre cette maison😋"

"Gut gemacht, aber mir persönlich ist er zu salzig und speckig im Abgang."

"Gains again significantly in profile in the third round. Great complexity. The wild fermentation that makes up Clairins finds its expression. Mega tasty, I must also try times in nem cocktail. 🍸"
