La Favorite Privilege Hommage à André Dormoy 1999

Delightful aroma, but flavors dissipate quickly.

Pleasant vanilla and pastries aroma
Balanced spices and floral notes
Limited edition exclusivity
RumX community voice

The rum presents a charming blend of floral, nutty, and spicy notes, paired with a vegetal and tea-like palate. Its light and thin body, however, might underwhelm.

    How does this rum taste?

    Privilege Hommage à André Dormoy is a limited edition rum distilled in 1999 at La Favorite distillery in Martinique. Crafted from sugar cane juice, it matured for 17 years to deliver an ABV of 43%. The nose is often noted for its vanilla, pastries, grass, nutty, and floral aromas, while the palate features spice, vegetal, light, thin, and tea notes. Users describe it as balanced yet somewhat fleeting, with both sweet and woody undertones. While praised for its delightful aroma and harmonious blend of flavors, some find its thin texture and rapid dissipation disappointing. Ideal for those appreciating complex nose profiles.

    I have never seen this bottle until it was in the tasting. A great rum with nicely balanced fruits and spices. The wood is wonderfully balanced with chocolate and roasted notes.

    #23rd dec RumXCalendar Blind tasting: Nose: sugarcane, pastries, floral, vegetal, grass, spicy, nutty, hazelnut Mouth: dry, light, thin, agricole, vegetal, tea, pastries, hazelnut Finish: mid long, dry, sugarcane, grass, cucumber, mild My prediction: I think it’s from martinique again, but i’m not familiar with that mix of pastries, nutty notes… approx. 40% approx. 5-10years of aging

    RumX Adventskalender 23.11.2022: Blind auf eine deutlich höhere ABV getippt. Sehr trocken, mit gefälligem Profil. Schöner Agricole.

    kommt fast etwas jugendlich daher, trotz der 17 Jahre im Fass. Viel grünes Gemüse an der Nase. Am Gaumen dann deutlich würziger. Die 43% passen hier gut. Nicht schlecht, aber auch noch deutlich Luft nach oben, wenn man zB mit dem la Flibuste vergleicht.
