    Farbe: Stroh Geruch: Süß und cremig mit vielen Fruchtestern. Riecht nach geriebenem Apfel und Birne. Geschmack: Süß und fruchtig im Mund nach Birne. Beim Schlucken immer noch sehr fruchtig. Zudem würzig mit Vanille und Sandelholz. Abgang: Süß, würzig und fruchtig. mittellang super lecker 87 Punkte

    Die Grundaromatik des Casimir bleibt sehr schön bestehen und wird nur durch ein paar dezente Aromen erweitert.

    Mein zweiter Clairin und dieser überzeugt mich schon eher. Fruchtig, leicht und mit floralen Anklängen, so dass ich fast schon süffig sagen will. In der Nase deutliche Ester, wenn auch weit entfernt von dem, was man aus anderen Ländern kennt, sodass hier der fruchtige Eindruck klar überwiegt. Nicht schlecht für so einen jungen Rum mit immerhin 50%, Ich mag ihn! Edit: Irgendwie habe ich den Eindruck, ein paar dreckige Noten zu schmecken. Ist es das Ex-Caroni-Fass? Ist es Einbildung? Auf jeden Fall rundet es den Geschmack weiter ab.

    Mein zweiter Clairin im Caroni-Fass ausgebaut. Casimir anstatt Sajous. Nase: intensiv und lecker, leicht vergorene Frucht, etwas Essig, leicht rauchig und künstlich-verbrannt (die Caroni-Dreckigkeites-Essenz). Hier geht die Süße eher Richtung Karamell, die Frucht in Richtung süß-säuerlicher Johannisbeere mit Stachelbeere und ich meine auch etwas Frische durch Minze festzustellen. Ist da auch etwas grüne Peperoni? Gaumen: wirkt zunächst etwas dünn, kommt dann über eine leichte Salz-Note direkt zu Anis, Fenchelsamen und Kardamom. Eine gewisse Süße Richtung wässrigem Sirup. Hinten nussiger Sesam und Kräuter. Insgesamt nicht ganz so rund wie der Sajous, etwas herber mit weniger Caroni am Gaumen. Auch sehr schön insgesamt.
