Velier Distillerie Bethel Romelus Clairin Le Rocher 2019

Fruity and savory. Very friendly for a clairin. There is a savory smoke that really lingers.

Had to lower this one as today was not my favorite day for this rum.

Rumfest 2023 tasting so notes were brief

Cilantro from the ashtray at the end after having chemical tasting soap on the tongue. The nose is pure cheese foot. Unfortunately not my Clairin.

Delicious. More mineral and fresh than the SonSon. Not quite as perverted olive and mushroom as the SonSon but more accessible and better in the daiquiri.

The cheese foot in the nose drowned out for me, unfortunately, the rest...Edit:After I did not like the here in the tasting with Jost he liked me with some distance now much better! Remains that me this Clairin of all the I was allowed to taste so far, but the previous evaluation was probably a bit too harsh... 7 points

Rhum aux arômes salés, viande fumée, cendres, olives

An der Nase ziemlich fleischig und speckig. Zum Glück jedoch nicht im Geschmack. Ansonsten ist er ganz gut gelungen.

This is the biggest Haitian stinker I know. And he's absolutely fabulous. Salty meat, olives, fruit and cheese! It's similar in flavour, and there's an Islay whisky spiciness. You can either love this or hate it. I definitely love it, but maybe my friend calls it goat piss 😁

A Clairin that stands out from all the others. The Dunder is extremely present aromatically. Flavor-wise, a blend of peated whiskey, mezcal and an antipasto. Works sure super in a Bloody Mary

"Short but exquisite finish! In summary, my tasting notes: On the nose: Olive, Very ripe, Tropical fruit, Floral, Herbaceous, Sugar cane On the palate: Floral, Olive, Fresh, Bergamot, Sugar cane, Geranium Finish: Olive, Delicious, Bergamot".

Der erinnert mich sofort an "Säntis Dreifaltigkeit" mit Rauch und Speck in der Nase und noch krasser im Mund! Krasses Zeug!

Un clairin très original. Une expérience très intéressante avec des notes que je n'avais jamais croisées dans du rhum. À tester en cocktail, très bon en ti punch. Peut-être écoeurant sur le long terme.

Rhum Society

wtf?! completely different from the previous Rocher for me. the nose is brutally smoky, almost like smoked bacon & BBQ sauce, lots of tropical fruits, especially banana, plus some cheese, and a full plate of matching fruits such as walnut, apricot, figs and grapes, as well as olives. the taste is then again bacony and smoky but also floral and slightly rose, bergamot, lime peel, fig and a subtle smokiness and saltiness. very very cool! rarely drunk something that tastes so perfumed! Also makes really good rhum martinis!
