    How does this rum taste?

    • Fruity, inviting nose
    • Balanced sweetness and spice
    • Approachable for newcomers

    Isautier's 7 Ans d’Âge Rhum Vieux from Réunion offers a distinctive journey for fans of classic column-distilled rums. RumX members often remark on its inviting nose—"light and fruity, like pears and peaches in syrup," balanced with deeper notes of caramelized dried fruit, spice, and a gentle varnish aroma. The palate leans dry and subtly spicy, weaving brown sugar and vegetal touches together with hints of caramel and mellow oak. Despite its 40% ABV, "the alcohol is well integrated," making it approachable for most. As one user sums up: "Not very complex but varied and approachable." Curious drinkers can find this rum and more detailed notes through RumX.

    "Un rhum de gamme permanente avec pas mal de cachet. Le nez laisse s’échapper de belles notes fraîches et herbacées qui embellissent les fruits, assez présents dans les narines (raisin sec, fruits rouge, banane, ananas). Le boisé est légèrement épicé et mielleux, offrant pas mal de douceur. Un profil pas très complexe mais assez varié pour être apprécié par les amateurs. La bouche fait parler le fût de cognac avec les épices (piment) les fruits secs et le raisin. On a un profil assez marqué sur la mélasse, le caramel, les fruits confits et le sucre brun. Malgré la douceur, le profil reste sec, légèrement toasté mais plutôt avenant. L’alcool est bien intégré. La finale paye cette douceur avec une longévité assez courte. Les marqueurs précédents reviennent globalement : le cognac et les fruits secs sur le raisin, le boisé sec, les épices (vanille, piment) et le côté doux et caramélisé sont dominants. Un rhum traditionnel sympathique pour découvrir de nouveaux horizons."

    "Un peu au-dessus du 5 ans de la même gamme. Là encore, c'est surtout le nez qui a un intérêt selon moi car la bouche est rendue très discrète par la réduction. Ca reste sympathique et assez facile à boire."

    "For Mai Tai historic purposes this is an extremely interesting rum. It tastes and looks like an exact description of how Trader Vic and Don would describe the “Martinique rums” of old that they would use. That meant rhum traditionnel, coffe colored (american weak diner coffee, not black italian espresso), with a distinct burnt note that is less pronounced and quicker to dissipate than demeraras. As nerds know, Negrita and St James are the only surviving martinique marques from that era and both their formulations are vastly different today from what it was back then (old negrita did not have high esther grand arome elements for example and st james went all out on agricole for consumer products). Even though this is from La Reunion it may just be a rum that has kept the style alive?"

    "8.1:On the nose, the rum is light and fruity, like pears and peaches in syrup, even funky. Then, we quickly enter a more full-bodied, concentrated dimension, with encaustic, resinous vegetation, a hint of motor oil, and very ripe exotic fruits.Aeration confirms this full-bodied character, while allowing it to achieve a very nice balance. The rum becomes truly interesting and original. Its profile flirts with concentrated fruit jellies, dried fruit and pits, always with a well-dressed oily edge, buttery . Seriousness, gourmandise, fun and elegance all come together in generosity. 8:The palate opens with vegetal flavors, with green aromas such as mint and basil. Other more resinous and oily aromas complete the picture, rosemary for example. We continue our journey naturally enough, encountering a little olive oil with hints of nuts, then a green olive in brine, with its stone. 7:The finish is fruity and mature, between dried fruits and concentrated fruit pastes."
