    Hatte mich mal durch verschiedene Clairins probiert und fand den Casimir am zugänglichsten. Clairins sind aber schon speziell. Nase: floral, vegatibel und fruchtig zugleich. Lieblich mit Honig-Süße. Künstlich und Vergoren! Die Frucht vermag ich nicht zu bestimmen, vielleicht etwas, was mal eine Himbeere war? Dann kommen noch Essig und Ester durch bevor es gemüsig wird: Kürbis und Artischocke mit eingelegter Olive. Hinten floral mit Geranie und Veilchen. Interessant aber echt anders. Gaumen: zunächst leicht salzig bevor er würzig und pflanzlich wird. In der Mitte bitter, dann grüner und mineralischer werdend. Artischocke und Olive finde ich auch hier wieder. Hinzu kommen Kräuter mit einer leichten Anis-Note. Grasig im Abgang. Eine ganz eigene Rum-Spezie, die man probiert haben sollte…

    Komplexer Clairin mit vielen verschiedenen Botanicalnoten. Dazu rauchig und leicht torfig. Im Blindtasting würde ich erstmal nicht direkt an einen Rum denken. Das Mundgefühl ist cremig und ölig. Sehr zu empfehlen!

    Raar. Na de eerste keer ruiken, heeft het een tijdje geduurd vooraleer ik me eraan gewaagd heb om het ook effectief te proeven. Een azijnachtige geur van olijvensap, zuur-zoutig en synthetisch, groene (Provençaalse?) kruiden. Een klein, klein beetje zoet, zoutig verder erg plantaardig (opnieuw olijven en wat komkommer?) en aards (lijkt precies zelfs een beetje geturfd??). Al met al toch redelijk rond. Als dit iemands eerste kennismaking met rum zou zijn, zou het wel eens gedoemd kunnen zijn. Voor mij was het de eerste, verwarrende kennismaking met de wereld van Clairins.
