La Favorite Privilege Hommage à André Dormoy

Delightful aroma, but flavors dissipate quickly.

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.

    Balanced spices and floral notes
    Limited edition exclusivity

    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.

     Agricole mit altem Holz. Am Gaumen würzig und grasig. Das Alter kommt in der Trockenheit durch. Im Mund halten die tollen und intensiven Geschmäcker leider nur gut einige Sekunden. Ansonsten wäre es ein guter Tropfen. Recht Süss.

     Ein klassische Agricole-Nase mit einem Hauch „Altem“, sowie Gras, Holz, dezentem Nougat! Am Gaumen fühlt er sich leicht und dünn an! Erstaunlicherweise entwickelt er dennoch ein breites Spektrum an Aromen! Der Gaumen ist stark pflanzlich und modrig.. irgendwie schmecke ich auch Gurke und das sagt mir leider nicht zu!

     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.
