How does this rum taste?
Clairin Vaval Cavaillon, produced in Haiti by Arawaks distillery and bottled by Velier, is a unique rum distilled in 2016 from sugar cane juice using a pot still. With a robust 48.8% ABV, it presents a diverse bouquet of aromas including tequila, medicinal notes, grass, banana, and mango. The palate reveals tropical fruit, sugar, grass, vegetal, and mineral flavors. User reviews note its remarkable fruity nose, complemented by a complex mixture of oily and slightly smoky notes, although some find the finish short and slightly dilute. This Clairin offers an intriguing balance of sweet and savory nuances.

Reminds us of a stock cube, but in a positive sense. Finish is unfortunately a bit short and watery
So far of the Clairins tasted by far the most disappointing. Poorer in aromas, a barely hinted funk and rubber, shorter and weaker in the mouth as well.
Leider etwas verwässert.
My first Clairin! An exquisite surprise and i had the pleasure to share that specific bottle with the members of Hypnotic Brass Ensemble after their show at the New Morning back then in 2016. Beautiful Memories!
