Velier Chelo Clairin Sajous 2018
Highly recommended white Clairin: powerful, floral-fruity and vegetal with great complexity and value. Loved neat and in cocktails, though some find the alcohol and “gluey” funk a bit sharp.
Fans of intense agricole-style cane juice rums who enjoy high-ester, funky profiles and want a powerful white spirit for serious sipping, Daiquiris or Ti’ Punch.

Intense floral-vegetal Clairin hit

Casimir 2016: Complex from the nose to the finish with herbal and fruity estery notes. A fruity dirtiness emerges on the finish, which is quite long for an unaged rum and becomes increasingly mineral. Sajous: The 6% abv is characterized by more volume on the palate. The rum is somewhat more demanding and less complex, also with vegetal notes and even more light and yellow fruits. The finish is somewhat spicy with a hint of lemon cake. White Clairins are great rums! It would be a dream if all varieties were available in 20 cl bottles.
Auto-translatedfor me the best sajous and the best clairin still! mango Madness, with light umami note, some white chocolate, pepper and fresh lime and discreetly smoky. incredibly Sweetffig and mega in the daiquiri.
Auto-translatedFirst white rum from Haiti tested on a split. I was very surprised, being used to white rums from the French West Indies. It is very vegetal, mineral and on citrus fruits. Some notes of mangoes and a smoked finish. Nice discovery, to be tested in ti punch.
Auto-translatedLooking at the price tag you get a lot for your money with this release. A very fresh and floral nose with lots of fruit and and sweet pastries. Draws really nice curtains in the glass and the empty glass is really nice. Even the day after there are still some notes left in the glass.
