    How does this rum taste?

    The Mauritius MCPA Rum, crafted in 2013 by Barikenn from sugar cane juice and aged 7 years, offers a complex profile with tropical fruit, cinnamon, and chocolate notes. With a potent 53.6% ABV, it boasts a memorable aroma dominated by tropical and apricot scents, followed by grapefruit and sugarcane hints. On the palate, its balanced integration showcases a blend of spices, fruit, woody undertones, and a pleasant dark chocolate finish. Appreciated for its fresh nose and easy-drinking quality, this limited release of 260 bottles from Mauritius receives acclaim for its layered yet approachable taste, despite lacking depth and complexity for some aficionados.

    Typical rhum from the "waterfall distillery". 😉 Pleasant, sweet nose, slightly softer on the palate, but still drinkable, alcohol quite well integrated. Appears older. However, a normal Chamarel XO is unlikely to be any worse ...

    Erstaunlich komplexer, junger Rum aus Mauritius!

    Nose definitely on the fruit with a very pleasant roundness. On the palate, a woody dimension is added. A nice length in mouth carried by the cane, the liquorice and the dark chocolate. The alcohol is well integrated. For the price, it is an excellent bottle!

    A pleasant rum, with the right degree, greedy but not too much. Just lacks a little depth and complexity.
