    Cleanly distilled Clairin Style Rum. Are already curious about the stored variants that will come on the market. The alcohol is well integrated

    NOSE: Super fruity; sweet banana, grilled pineapple, mango, papaya, cherry, raspberry, a symphony of mainly tropical fruits. Light oily notes; kerosene and diesel, slight smoky mescal notes. Diving deeper; a trove of medicinal smells as well; camphor, gauze bandage. Wonderful (92-93p) TASTE: The arrival is slightly oily, it’s tropical, (just) a little peppery. Mid palate: oily kerosene and diesel notes compete with tropical fruitiness. Exit & aftertaste also a bit oily/waxy, equal parts mild sweetness and black pepper. Takes water well but perhaps best w/o. (91) OVERALL: Close to perfect: 92p.

    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!
