    How does this rum taste?

    Vulcao from the Santo Antao distillery in Cape Verde is an intriguing rum distilled from sugar cane juice using a Pot Still, with an ABV of 45%. Noted for its vegetal aroma alongside hints of nail polish, lemon, and solvents, this rum offers a unique taste experience. The flavor profile prominently features solvent and vegetal notes, accompanied by citrus and peppery undertones with some synthetic impressions. While some users appreciate its bold palate and lingering finish, others find the solvent and synthetic elements detract from the overall enjoyment. This rum invites comparisons to similarly raw styles like Clairin, highlighting its fresh cane essence and hints of smokiness. Ideal for those seeking an adventurous tasting session.

    Dégusté à l aveugle. Le nez me fait penser à un agricole avec un doux parfum de canne, c est rond agréable fruité de poire mûre et une petite touche co.combre, j imagine même une fermentation un peu plus longue .la bouche est plus sur des éléments, du végétal, minéral et Iodé. J ai la sensation d' une proximité maritime.

    Not bad, just nothing exciting to be found here

    Barbosa, M&G, Vulcao in comparison... Nose: vegetal, fermented and slightly vinegar, a little more lemon than the other two. Again sauerkraut and cucumber. Nose closer to the M&G, very light caramel note and slightly resinous. Palate: similar to the M&G, superficially sour, slightly salty and resinous. Artificially planty and herbal. A somewhat unpleasant lemon balm and toilet stone mixture. Unfortunately, I don't really like it either. Of the three, the Barbosa is the most pleasing.

    Difficile de trouver des arômes à ce rhum tellement les solvants et l’odeur de vernis à ongle est important. La bouche s’ouvre plus sur la canne à sucre et les épices mais le goût du solvant persiste, pareil pour la fin de bouche.
