How does this rum taste?
La Flibuste 1994 from La Favorite distillery in Martinique is an aged rum, crafted from sugar cane juice and matured for 25 years. Its aroma offers an intricate bouquet of prunes, wood, vanilla, and candied fruits. The taste mirrors these scents with sweet, prune-forward notes complemented by spices like cinnamon, cardamom, and hints of woody undertones. Users describe a balanced and slightly peppery profile with a prolonged, gentle finish. Despite its generally appreciated complexity and richness, some find it overwhelmingly sweet. This rum delivers a quintessential taste of Martinique’s rum production heritage.

Complex and intense on the nose. Then concentrated plum juice on the palate. Extreme. Syrupy.
A mahogany color and a nose of prunes, candied fruit, wood and vanilla..... makes you salivate! In the shower, you're immediately reminded of prunes, which are sweet and candied. The finish is long .... Very long! With prunes and wood. To sum up, it's really very good, even if I'd have preferred something a little more powerful and less sweet, frankly, it's worth the detour. Especially for the taste that lingers on the palate!
Compared to the previous one we just tried this one kicks it up a notch. The nose is fruity with a nice mix of spices and some barrel in the back. The palate is balanced and complex. Slightly sweet with fruits and spices. Lightly peppery with some barrel. The finish is long and intense, lightly sweet with some barrel and vanilla.
Première flibuste pour moi et je dois avouer ma déception après en avoir peut être trop attendu… On a plus l’impression d’avoir un rhum arrangé en bouche qu’un vrai rhum de dégustation, je trouve qu’à ce prix c’est vraiment très très cher ! Alors ce n’est pas mauvais loin de là mais l’expression « jus de pruneau » n’est pas loin de la réalité. Incompréhension sur l’engouement autour de cette série « mythique ».
