Issan White 2016 40%
Issan White Rum from Thailand is a unique and exotic rum distilled from sugar cane juice in 2016 using a pot still. It boasts a floral and vegetal aroma, with hints of grass, olive, and pepper. On the palate, this rum is peppery, balanced with notes of sugarcane, spice, and a nutty undertone. Its freshness and round profile make it highly drinkable, despite being slightly light and fleeting. The combination of lychee, melon, citrus, and toasted flavors adds to its character. Perfect for cocktails, this rum’s complex, fresh, and exotic profile highlights its Thai origins. Despite legal constraints limiting it to 40% ABV, it remains a distinctive choice for rum enthusiasts seeking something out of the ordinary.

“Un rhum de Thaïlande qui tient ses promesses en termes d’exotisme. Le nez est très floral et végétal, les notes de canne à sucre, d’herbe et de terre se conjuguent à la douceur du litchi, des agrumes et des notes poivrées. C’est très doux et frais. En bouche, la douceur prédomine clairement. C’est très végétal, très frais, la canne à sucre et le litchi s’expriment sans trop de problème sur ce profil assez net. À noter quelques épices (poivre notamment) qui viennent chatouiller les papilles. La finale est très courte, portée par la canne à sucre, le poivre et la verdure. Un profil exotique, frais et sympathique qui aurait du potentiel si la législation thaïlandaise n’interdisait pas d’embouteiller l’alcool au delà de 40%. À noter qu’il 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 profondità, ma resta caratteristico e unico.”
