    How does this rum taste?

    RumX members love this clairin’s vivid sugarcane core and fresh, vegetal punch. Expect aromas of cane, hay and lemon peel leading to an intense, oily palate with citrus, spice and a long finish. Several reviewers call it wild and characterful, with floral and herbal flashes. A few note a raw alcohol edge or slight neutrality. With 21 community reviews and rising trust, it’s a distinctive Haitian cane-juice experience.

    I remember this slap in the face when I drank this rum a long time ago, almost 10 years ago, I think it was the moment when I realized the extent of the possibilities with white rum! Since then I can't get enough of it, a very wild side, as if you were in a stable with horses and oxen, a change of scenery, I think it's a Clairin character trait.

    Encore un superbe clairin gourmand et très végétal à la fois. La canne fermentée et bien sucrée domine du nez à la finale.

    31.12. 2019 Last tasting of 2019 went into 2020. Celebrating with family and friends who like rum we ended up having a great party according to my notes. Notes. Transparent in colour. Nose: fresh, intense, fruit, herbs, polish, sugarcane, floral. Palate: Intense, spicy, oily, sugarcane, polish, citrus. Finish: long, spicy, citrus, anise.

    Very interesting, but a bit too much mushroom for me.
