Batch 001.

This is definitely a cognac aged rum, with a little whisky aging as well. I like it, but I think the cognac/whisky have a little too much influence. I generally prefer straight rum.

Smells and tastes of cognac, whisky, and a touch of vanilla and honey. Nice at 44%abv, but not enough rum flavor for me to rate it higher.

Von der kleinen Insel Mauritius, im indischen Ozean und nicht weit vom afrikanischen Kontinent entfernt, produziert. Ich hatte die Ehre diesen Rum in einem schönen Hotel direkt am Strand zu geniessen und es kann sein, dass die Umgebung und die Atmosphäre meine Bewertung positiv beeinflusst 😉.

Ein wunderbar weicher Rum, sehr komplex in seiner Struktur und fein im Abgang ist. Nicht zu süss und hinterlässt einen Hauch Aprikose im Gaumen.

Rhum mauricien de style anglais à base de mélasse. Une bouche sur la vanille, les fruits et les épices.
Doux et suave. Très long en bouche. Je l'ai dégusté avec une tartelette au citron : très bel accord !

Goût rond et aromatique, quoique un peu sec. Nez cependant sec et très piquant, tout comme la fin de bouche.

The nose smells orange and some oriental spices.They disappeare on the tongue, where I have oak and dates. The oak lasts as a very smooth aftertaste. A bit too much burn of alcool, though. A pity!

Un rhum excellent : le nez s'ouvre sur des notes de noyaux, d'amande... de kirsch un léger boisé- vanillé vient compléter avec discrétion ces subtiles effluves. La bouche apparaît plus simple, sèche, légèrement vineuse et orientée sur les épices. La finale est tout en subtilité, elle vous réchauffe le haut du palais.

An excellent rum: the nose opens with notes of kernels, almonds ... kirsch a light woody vanilla comes to complement with discretion these subtle fragrances. The mouth appears simpler, dry is slightly vinous and oriented on spices. The finish is all in subtlety, it warms you up the palate.

A solid, tasty rum, with a touch of heat. Oak, toffee, a touch of spice. Nice!

I suppose it will be good rum for this price. I was very disappointed. It taste like whiskey (not very good whiskey).

Although one of the best Mauritian rums I've tried until now I've given it an 8 because I think there is still room for refining. It's made in the oldest distillery on the island but this brand is fairly new.

It's dryer than the caribbean nephews, some will prefer it others not.

perfectly balanced, honeyed, slightly sharper, lots of flavors, dry oaky after taste

I didn't enjoy it as a "mixer" as much as just sipping an excellent balance between smooth tasting and favorable.
