    How does this rum taste?

    The "White" rum from Privateer Rum Distillery, bottled by Habitation Velier, offers a bold 62% ABV profile distilled from molasses in 2020. Limited to just 600 bottles, its aroma is dominated by fruity, pear, and sugarcane notes. Taste-wise, it delivers prominent fruity flavors with hints of cinnamon, pear, and green pepper, embodying an intriguing agricole-esque character. While praised for its fruitiness and unique pear notes, some find it linear, suitable more for mixology purposes. Collectors might appreciate its rarity, having been crafted under Maggie Campbell's tenure prior to her move to Mount Gay. Reviews describe it as a distinctive, limited release that compares interestingly to unaged Clairin. Search "RumX" for expert reviews and purchase options on this unique release.

    23.5.2024 juicy fruit in the aroma, almost too mature taste is soft, sweet, it doesn't seem to be 62%, very good, better than slivovitz ;-)

    A surprisingly mild unaged rum. Overall, pear clearly dominates here, albeit much more pleasantly than in most clear Williams pears.

    this is really good! Surprisingly fruity! The pear didn’t immediately come though on the nose for me so I was happily surprised after taking my first sip. The reviews I read of this said it was very agricole like but I personally don’t get the grassy, fresh pressed sugar cane juice on this that I get from other unaged agricoles I’ve tried. This is kind of a one trick pony but it’s very unique! Lots of fruity pear, very little ethanol burn. I know almost everything is a limited release these days but this is a limited release that literally can not be remade. This was created with Maggie Campbell before her departure from Privateer to Mount Gay. So another one like this coming from Privateer with her influence is very unlikely. Definitely try/grab this if you are interested in trying a Rum that’s super fruit forward, a bit different than other unaged pot stills, and can find it for 43 bucks.

    Disappointing on the nose, pleasant on the palate but too linear
