Velier Distillerie Bethel Romelus Clairin Le Rocher 2019

Extremely aromatic nose. Interesting mixture of perfume and cheese feet. 😳On the palate, the cheese note disappears and an exciting composition of perfume and smoke appears. Insider tip for 'ne really horny Bloody Mary 🤫

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

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 😁

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.

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!

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

A very interesting clairin. Marked olive notes mingle with very ripe fruit, floral and smoky notes. The palate follows on the same note with a hint of earthiness, very supple on the palate. The finish is very pleasantly long, with a hint of salinity. A fine discovery.

Interessanter Rum… bringt eine spannende Dynamik mit um in Cocktails zu glänzen. Ziemlich Rauchig mit einer Käse-Umami Note, echt speziell. Auch Speck ist zu finden. Nicht ganz was man sich bei Rum wünscht, kann man aber gut mal probieren 😊

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.

Number 3 from the community tasting. Thanks RumTaTa!At first contact First fierce overcoming. Cheese foot says Chris and hits it on the point. You get used to it and get as far as the Toast Hawaii.The mouth at first similarly brute but quite different: super artificial: soap, shampoo, perfume, coriander, gummy bears. The soap remains, but you can talk it up. In addition, wet cigarette ash, which continues in the finish. Coriander remains as present.believe this is one you can grow into. With bad luck, however, it remains artificial soapy water.

"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".

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

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.

Thanks to RumTaTa.The somewhat washed up unicorn of the Cairins or also affectionately called "cheese foot". In the nose I actually had cheese, school gym in the summer smell and curry.Taste then inhale a load of dry shampoo, chemical, coriander, salt, cheese.Not the tastiest rum, but clearly exceptional and interesting.

One of it’s own rum. Complexed, a lot is going on while drinking it. Very specific aroma of fruity smoked mackerel and olive brine taste keeps You interested. Personally, It is not a rum that I would drink repeatedly because of the meat/peat/bbq/bacon notes. Nevertheless, thats some great rum and I highly reccomend it!
