Distilled in 2006 from molasses with a column still, this 50% ABV rum features dominant woody, vanilla, and banana aromas. The palate delights with vanilla, woody, and sweet notes, complemented by spice. Users appreciate its balanced integration of high ABV and natural sweetness. The finish reveals dry, spicy, and slightly menthol notes. While some find it lacking in emotional impact, it remains a compelling choice for those favoring a nuanced, dry profile with exceptional value and easy sipping appeal.

    Thinking about the price tag you get a lot for your money in my mind. A naturally sweet and fruity profile with some wood and spices. Well balanced and the ABV has been integrated really well. The empty glass is really nice and I can pick up some mint and medicinal notes.

    Molasses rum from Guadeloupe. Am I a great friend of! Nose: Wow, unusual, complex and intense. Beautifully aromatic. Spicy-woody but also fruity. A slight menthol note brings in a dirty freshness. At the beginning salty-peppery with nutmeg, anise and some ginger, but next to it also equal sweetness of maple syrup and brown sugar. Pleasantly fruity with black currant, cherry and gooseberry. Muted at the back, slightly soapy and smoky at the same time. Exciting composition. 8,3 Palate: what immediately stands out are the distinct soapy notes, a menthol freshness and sweet-sour-tart molasses. There is also tobacco and young wood. Somehow it's also fruity, perhaps orange peel with some ginger. Again, nicely complex and not boring. A bit too much soap for me. 7,9

    I really like it! Nice balance between wood, vanilla, chocolate, mint and yellow fruits.

    Très bon et avec un profil un peu similaire à Isautier, assez sec et epicé, terreux en fin de bouche, pas trop doux du tout. Rapport qualité prix très bon, mais…normalement quand je déguste quelque chose que j’aime j’ai hâte de procurer une (ou plusieurs) bouteilles. Ce n’est pas le cas ici. Il est vraiment bon mais il marque pas mes émotions d’une manière approfondi. Je me retrouve étant un peu trop logique dans mon appréciation, ce qui n’est pas finalement bon signe. Très bon et bon marché mais il manque le petit je ne sais quoi pour le faire remarquable. Je l’aime bien mais en fin de compte j’ai pas besoin d’une bouteille entière.
