Samai Gold 41%
Originating from the Samai distillery in Cambodia, this 41% ABV rum is crafted from molasses using a pot still. Tasting is characterized by prominent notes of honey, caramel, and vanilla, with a noticeable sweetness suggesting possible added sugars. The aroma features vanilla and oak, evoking a woody, sweet overture alongside an alcoholic undertone. User impressions highlight an intriguing profile with fruity, sherry-infused notes and a light, sweet finish. While the rum's innovative Cambodian origin and transparent production process have been praised, the perceived dilution and potential for added sweeteners draw mixed reactions. A spirited exploration for those interested in diverse rum profiles.

“Un petit rhum de base axé sur la douceur. Le nez dévoile des arômes de miel, de caramel, d’épices et de fruits (banane, noix) avec une touche de bois et d’alcool. Clairement pas le profil le plus original, ni le plus transcendant. Les saveurs en bouche ne sont pas désagréables : les fruits, combinés au caramel, au chocolat, aux notes rôties et sucrées avec un soupçon de notes terreuses forment une jolie composition. Toutefois la dilution est trop perceptible et ternit le produit final. La finale revient sur la douceur des épices, des notes rôties et fruitées avec une influence caramélisée et mielleuse. Les rhums du Cambodge pourraient avoir un beau potentiel s’ils n’étaient pas brimés de la sorte hélas.”
