Mmmh, had somehow expected something else. The nose is all liquorice. Brown sugar is added on the palate, but you can really only taste liquorice. I find this rum a little too sweet.
Très bon rhum
Un rhum à l’origine exotique mais relativement standard en dégustation. Le nez est très sucré, avec à la fois du caramel, du sucre brun et du toffee. Quelques fruits secs (raisin) viennent accentuer la sucrosité, ainsi que des épices relativement légères (vanille, réglisse). Un soupçon de café et de noisette font apparition, avant qu’une touche de fraîcheur ne vienne à la toute fin. Le profil est globalement assez aseptisé, neutre et sans grande profondeur. Le goût est assez monotone et terne, porté par des notes sucrées, caramélisées, un peu fruitées (raisin sec) et légèrement rôties (café). Quelques notes d’épices et de réglisse montrent le bout de leur nez mais sans réellement convaincre. Le profil a beau être sucré, l’alcool n’est pourtant pas si bien intégré malgré le faible voltage. Un rhum qui n’a rien de sensationnel. La finale n’est pas très longue et tout aussi mémorable (traduction, oubliable). Les notes sucrées, épicées, boisées et le raisin sec se renvoient la patate chaude sans vouloir assumer la responsabilité de ce jus. Il va falloir patienter avant de voir l’Indonésie jouer un rôle prépondérant dans le rhum premium.
Leider kein sonderlich guter Batavia arrack Vertreter. Sehr süß und gleichzeitig ist der Alkohol nicht wirklich gut eingebunden... Da gibt's deutlich bessere und generell fehlt hier sämtliche Batavia arrack dna. Wirkt künstlich und gesüßt.
