    How does this rum taste?

    Fighting Spirit Gold is an intriguing rum produced in Martinique at Distillerie du Simon. Crafted from sugar cane juice and distilled in 2017 using a Column Still, this limited release of 6,000 bottles was selected by Rhum Chantal Comte. With a high alcohol content of 50%, it exhibits prominent notes of sugarcane with floral and vegetal undertones, accompanied by a bold peppery palate. While some find its intensity challenging, it stands out in the realm of white rums. Users suggest it works well in punches due to its vibrant profile, though others appreciate its unique qualities noted in culinary settings.

    Dégustation à l'aveugle : Premier nez, une eau-de-vie de fruits, surement de prune, étonnant ! Mais ça se dissipe vite, un profil plus orienté canne à sucre, gourmandise, fraicheur, de légères traces d’anis, de menthol, et de petites notes salines. Il me fait très vite penser à la dégustation récente de Chantal Compte « Figthing Spirit », et la gourmandise/fraicheur m’orientent vers les purs jus de canne de l’Ile Maurice. En bouche, de la canne, des agrumes, du citron vert, aucun doute, c’est un pur jus, surement agricole. Meme si cette gourmandise et l’impression de fraicheur mentholée sont un peu hors cadre pour la Martinique, pourquoi pas ? La chauffe est moyenne, surement 52° (je suis assez mauvais sur ce type de devinette, mon palais fait assez peu de différence entre 50 et 60…). Une finale avec un léger poivre, des agrumes, quelques notes florales, et au fond du verre, un peu de poire. J’apprécie beaucoup, et je reste sur ma première idée. Mon idée : Chantal Compte « Figthing Spirit Green Lagoon », Ile Maurice, que j’imagine à 52°. * Roulement de tambours * >>> Chantal Compte « Figthing Spirit Gold », Martinique, 50% NB : je comprends que le prix puisse refroidir, mais quand je vois ce rhum noté 7.5/10, c'est quand même étonnant ! M'enfin, l'Ile Maurice de la meme série est encore meilleur ;)

    Mon échantillon n’était pas bon, brûlant, sec, franchement désagréable. A regoûter peut-être, mais je n’en n’ai pas envie. Remarquable en pâtisserie, après avoir testé.

    Un petit punch à lui tout seul...

    FFS fruité floral salé un bon blanc mais pour le prix il y a mieux ! Le palais de Chantal Comte fait des merveilles sur les rhums vieux ses sélections comptes parmi les meilleurs bdf qu’on peut goûter les rhums sont tout simplement orgasmique pour les blancs mon cousin richard avec tous les ti punchs qu’il se tape ferais peut-être mieux !
