Velier Chelo Clairin Vieux Sajous - First Release 2016 4yr 50,6%
Clairin Vieux Sajous - First Release is a distinctive Haitian rum crafted at Chelo distillery. Selected by Velier, this cask-strength rum was distilled from sugar cane juice and aged for 4 years. Notes of tropical fruits, vanilla, and spices feature prominently in both aroma and taste. The rum's unique profile also includes medicinal and mineral undertones. Experienced as complex and characterful, its finish is dry with hints of oak and buttery textures. While some find the initial nose strong, it opens up to become more aromatic and pleasing with time. With only 2316 bottles, this limited edition appeals to rum enthusiasts seeking a blend of agricultural tradition and lively spirit.

“This is a rum that will separate waters as an either you like it or not. Right out of the bottle it can be pungent to some, but after resting for a while it becomes more gentle and light. Fruity with medicinal notes are there from nose to finish. There is also oak and spice in the mix. Price to quality can be discussed all the way to the bank :-)”
