    How does this rum taste?

    The Guadeloupe rum from the Bonne Mère distillery, bottled by Transcontinental Rum Line, is a column-distilled expression crafted in 2014 from molasses. Aged for 4 years and bottled at 43% ABV, this limited release of 4348 bottles offers subtle citrus, apple, and pineapple aromas. Predominantly featuring notes of citrus, licorice, and honey, the palate is noted for its mellow character and brief finish. While praised for its value and easy sipping profile, some found it lacking in complexity and depth, deeming it more suitable as an approachable, everyday rum. Compared to other rums in the lineup, it appears reserved yet accessible to both connoisseurs and casual drinkers.

    Nez sympa,mais en bouche c est plutôt moins bien! En bouche pâtisseries et peu de fruits et surtout un goût légèrement fumé. La fin est courte et sur les épices et pâtisseries. Bon franchement, pour moi, c est pas un grand rhum, mais ça se sirote.

    Very light in taste, color and smell. Citrus is quite distinct in the nose, not so dominant to the taste. One can easily sip it by itself or along to snacks, as it demands not much attention to itself. Quite short aftertaste.

    Le nez est très discret, trop même. On retrouve quelques notes d’agrumes, de boisé et de sucre brun. Je dirai même que c’est un rhum de mélasse … En bouche c’est doux, avec un profil herbacé, des notes de réglisses et de miel (ce qui confirme la mélasse). La finale est très courte sur du léger boisé. L’ensemble est beaucoup trop insipide et jeune pour mériter un embouteillage tel quel. Après les beaux Martiniquais et avant de passer à la mélasse, il n’avait pas sa place là dans la line up! Il aura eu le mérite de nous avoir rincé les papilles avant la suite de la dégustation …

    Absolutely great value for money
