"Un rhum de ThaĂŻlande qui tient ses promesses en termes dâexotisme. Le nez est trĂšs floral et vĂ©gĂ©tal, les notes de canne Ă sucre, dâherbe et de terre se conjuguent Ă la douceur du litchi, des agrumes et des notes poivrĂ©es. Câest trĂšs doux et frais. En bouche, la douceur prĂ©domine clairement. Câest trĂšs vĂ©gĂ©tal, trĂšs frais, la canne Ă sucre et le litchi sâexpriment sans trop de problĂšme sur ce profil assez net. Ă noter quelques Ă©pices (poivre notamment) qui viennent chatouiller les papilles. La finale est trĂšs courte, portĂ©e par la canne Ă sucre, le poivre et la verdure. Un profil exotique, frais et sympathique qui aurait du potentiel si la lĂ©gislation thaĂŻlandaise nâinterdisait pas dâembouteiller lâalcool au delĂ de 40%. Ă noter quâil passe relativement bien en cocktail."
"Al naso maturati/fermentati di frutta tropicale(soprattutto papaya), zucca, melone, litchi e un mix di olio evo e aceto balsamico, come un vino rosso aperto da qualche giorno o uno sherry/passito. Molto particolare. Al palato si aggiunge un po' di tostatura e qualche nota salata poi nel finale agrumi e pepe vivace. Nel bicchiere vuoto melone, zucca, rosmarino e arrostito/brodo di carne(umami). Peccato per la poca profonditĂ , ma resta caratteristico e unico."
"Belle découverte ça se boit tout seul"
