How does this rum taste?
The Clairin from Haiti’s Le Rocher distillery, bottled by Velier, offers a distinctive rum experience. With an ABV of 46.5% and distilled from sugar cane juice using a pot still, this rum captivates with intense olive, smoky, and herbal notes. User reviews highlight its briny, olive-briny aroma with smoky and fermented undertones, while its taste features strong olive and herbal flavors with hints of lemon and floral. The unique profile includes elements reminiscent of barbecue and peaty spirits, attracting mixed reactions from users. While some appreciate its complex and unusual profile, particularly for mixology in cocktails like dirty martinis, others find the strong smoke and fermentation less appealing.

My first Clairin and wow! Hooked! After trying a few others, this one tends towards the olive-briny side and has a fantastically lone finish.
Nose: Funky fermented and rotten meat paste. Taste: Jamaican funk, olives and smoked bacon. A little too fermented in both smell and taste. Lots of smoke aftertaste.
very ungewöhnlichr agricole. horny black olive note that picks me up full...comes really cool in dirty martini with mancino secco vermouth 3:1 and Kalamata olives to it!🤤🍸
Lots of brine here, some shoemaker's glue and rubber. Didn't impress me but it's a drink to try. Bacon and barbecue sauce in the empty glass
