A white rum in the pure agricultural tradition, as Bologna knows how to make them. The nose is a skilful blend of the greenness of sugarcane fields, tangy fruitiness with lemon zest, spiciness with pepper and mineral notes. The profile is round and expressive. The attack on the palate is bold, bursting with spices (aniseed, cloves) to intensify the profile. Vegetal and citrus notes support the assertive tone of this fairly dry Bologna. The mouthfeel is thick and slightly creamy, which is quite pleasant. The alcohol is well integrated, but this profile is sharper than conventional whites. The finish is very long, carried by the spices (chillies in particular) which bring their warmth, while the herbaceous notes balance out the balance of power. Exotic fruit and sugarcane share the finish. An elaborate Bologna, perfect for spicy Ti Punch.
C'est bon mais pas ouf. Gout assez cremeux tout seul. Mais soyons honnete, tres peu de gens achete les blancs pour les boire nette. Le vrai test pour un agricole blanc c'est le ti-punch sec, ca veut dire juste un peu de citron vert mais pas de sucre. Est-ce qu il peut nager dans des conditions comme ca? Malheuresement non. En depit du taux d'álcool eleve il devient assez timide et peu expressif dans un ti-punch sec. Dommage, le gout lui meme est pas mal mais vous pouvez faire mieux.
Nose : A sweet nose, then peppery, almost spicy. One finds well on the cane, very floral, then of beautiful mineral note, iodized, with very beautiful touch of citrus fruit and menthol.Taste : Very soft in attack, as in the nose, one finds vegetable notes, a little spiced. The citrus fruit takes then, the top, with a bottom a little coppered, always accompanied by a very present cane. Finally we leave on the spices, with a pepper which becomes very powerful.the final: Warm, peppered with a point of citrus fruit.A superb realization on behalf of BOLOGNE, which is at the level of its predecessor.
Nez fruité avec des notes florales subtilement présentes. Épicé au palais et notes de piment à la finale.
