How does this rum taste?
Clairin Ansyen (Jack Daniels Cask) is a distinctive Haitian rum from the Le Rocher distillery, aged for 21 months. Distilled from sugar cane juice using a pot still, this rum offers a unique profile with dominant notes of smoke, iodine, and bacon, traced to its Jack Daniels cask aging. Users note its intriguing blend of fermented, citrus, olive, and solvent aromas. Though polarizing, the contrasting flavors provide an unconventional yet intriguing experience, reminiscent of the original Clairin character with a Bourbon influence. While not universally pleasing, this rum is appreciated for its boldness and complexity, catering to adventurous palates. Explore on RumX for reviews and purchasing options.

Comparative series of ansyans Clairins. Quite a rough nose with medicine, whiskey, vegetal and a bit of oil. A surprisingly smooth mouthfeel when I was expecting a lot of strength. Vegetal and caramel. The finish is quite long and dominated by smoked/coated whisky. A very good rum but the rum and whisky flavours collide a bit without finding harmony.

Nose Fresh, faint wood, balanced, light olives, fruits, light floral, citrus, vegetal. Palate Round, fresh, pineapple, floral, light caramel, salty, light olive, pineapple, light vegetal. Finish Medium long, round, fruits, light orange, salty, light wood.
Schöner Clairin mit eher dezenter Bourbon-Reifung, eher Rauch. Angenehme Trinkstärke.
Very interesting thing. The Jack Daniel's barrel really comes into its own. With a few % more, this would have been a real winner.
