Un rhum gouté au GRF en 2025. De belles découvertes au stand Vagabond Spirits dont ce rhum de Guadeloupe. Un nez fruité avec des fruits tropicaux, un côté végétal et fermenté avec du bois en soutient. Une sorte de douceur naturelle me rappelle que le finish a été fait en fûts de Jurançon. La première bouche est légèrement acqueuse mais aussitôt après les arômes s’amplifient puis l’amertume du bois se développe en masquant un peu les fruits. La finale est aussi marquée par cette amertume boisée qui fait perdre quelques points ici. Sinon un très beau rhum.
I feel that's the kind of rum which one will either love or hate. That's more on the hate side for me unfortunately. The nose is very fruity, peach, tropical fruit. The mouth... It's where there's something odd. It's certainly fruity again but there's something I cannot name that bothers me. The finish is long but with this aftertaste I'm not a big fan of.
The nose greets us with something extremely fruity, and we're struck by the immediate presence of Jurançon. In addition to this mellow wine, there are fresh fragrances and a wave of exotic fruit: passion fruit, yellow kiwi and, above all, a fruit I had the pleasure of tasting in Martinique: the quenette. It's like biting into a Tutti Frutti tart, with the acidity of fresh redcurrants. With a little rest, this nose becomes more complex, with a light woodiness and a hint of papaya. But what lurks in the background, and I'll come back to this in a few lines, is a touch of menthol and some herbaceous notes. On the palate, the fruitiness is even more incredible than on the nose. Hints of tangy red fruit and ripe maracuja. The alcohol is perfectly integrated, and we give it 10° less on the tongue. But what's staggering after a minute or two is how the palate is flooded with fresh mint, and then I say to myself: "Damn! But it's like a TDL!" Blind, I wouldn't be able to discern a big difference between this keel and a very good rum from Trinidad Distillers Limited. A very pleasant surprise given that TDL is one of my favorite distilleries in the rum world. The only difference between this rum and the Spirit Gallery TDL is the greater complexity, length and opulence in favor of the TDL. The finish is reminiscent of sweet yellow wine. The finish is moderately long. The menthol fades in favor of the exotic fruitiness, which lingers in the throat for quite some time.
Erstmal danke an MrRumantic, dass er gleich nach dem Kauf die Flasche geköpft hat bzw köpfen hat lassen vom Barkeeper im Hotel. Leider hat mich diese "exotisch pfiffige" Abfüllung leider nicht abgeholt. Ist einfach nicht mein Geschmack.
