    Un sample d’une Flibuste du début des années 1980. Un nez à la fois typique de la Favorite avec de la corde de chanvre, mais on sent une complexité, une douceur et une concentration uniques. La bouche est encore plus belle, beaucoup de bois, mais aussi de la fraîcheur et des fruits et des épices. Tout est en équilibre. La fraîcheur persiste en finale et le bois, bien que très présent ne domine pas. Le verre vide garde aussi cette fraîcheur qui empêche toute lourdeur. Un rhum mystérieux et antique.

    As pro ised I have found the notes from my old Flibuste tastings and will add them today. This version is great and the plum is strong on this one without being too dominant. Sweet and slight touch of wood and fruity from nose to finish. My only regret is that I only bought a few bottles of this release.

    Wouah! D’une douceur incroyable! On sent que le rhum a vieilli mais avec des notes vraiment très douces. Un palais envoûtant, rond et bien fait. Mais vraiment un rhum d’une douceur, les degrés sont bien intégrés. Un coté vanillé ressort également.
