Clement Canne Bleue

Great stuff. Not too harsh, fresh, lime juice, grassy, tropical fruits, soft finish.

Nice grassy rhum perfect for several cocktails or over ice with a lime.

So damn good, it tastes like whole-plant cane sugar. Very strong bight at 50% alcohol, otherwise it would get a 10. I like white rum, neat, and this will do for me.

Excellent agricole rhum - fresh, light and quite powerful. Not so cool as Neisson is but still very good!

Fantastic stuff: strong tropical fruit notes with a hefty dose of grassy cane. Sharp and refreshing!

Un très bon rhum pour les ti-punch, planteur et autres cocktails.

Rum festival cardiff! White rhum from Martinique sweet and spicy white agricole decent

Wonderful rhum with a lot of grassy and floral cane notes in nose and taste.

Millésime 2012 : excellent en ti punch, mais probablement comme d'autres rhums agricoles non millésimés

Great in a Ti punch, impressions are clean grassy and citrusy on the palate. A similar aroma and flavor to a good quality white or reposado tequila, bien my palate and experience with Tequila... thoroughly enjoyed it as my entry level white Agricole.

This is a phenomenal cocktail agricole that packs a punch ... On its own has notes of charcoal and fresh sugar cane

Clément rhum blanc Canne Bleue : premier monovariétal millésimé d’une grande intensité.

Un retour dans l’Histoire. En 2000, Clément profite de l’arrivée du nouveau millénaire pour dévoiler sa dernière création : le rhum blanc Canne Bleue. Avec cette nouveauté, Clément frappe fort. Le « Canne Bleue » est en effet le premier rhum agricole distillé à partir d’une seule variété de canne à sucre : la B69.566, facilement reconnaissable à sa couleur caractéristique qui lui a valu son nom. Originaire de la Barbade, terre de rhum originelle, cette canne possède une forte teneur en sucre et dispose d’un fort profil aromatique. De plus l’INAO (Institut national de l'origine et de la qualité) l’ayant reconnue, elle participe à l’obtention de la précieuse Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée « rhum de Martinique ». Face au succès de sa création Clément décide de lancer une nouvelle bouteille chaque année faisant de chaque nouveau millésime un rendez-vous fort attendu (différente de celle qui a servi à la dégustation, destinée aux GMS). Afin de préserver au maximum toute la palette aromatique que peut nous offrir la canne bleue, le rhum bénéficie d’une réduction lente, ainsi 6 mois de brassage et d’aération permettant d’obtenir les 50° du Clément Canne Bleue.

Notre avis : Le partenaire idéal du Ti’punch ? Ça serait oublier qu’il a aussi tous les arguments pour se déguster pur…

Nez : floral et léger, quelques notes d’agrumes et de fruits exotiques relèvent ce joli nez qui après aération gagne en douceur.

Bouche : vivante et vivifiante, c’est l’authenticité de la canne fraîche qui nous est offerte, l’ensemble étant bien structuré par le poivré et la bagasse.

Finale : très agréable avec ce joli poivré tout en finesse.

I simply couldn't drink this. I've tried Clement once again after this and was very disappointed. I'd rather use Bacardi than this.

N- With initial burst of sharp and sweet fresh cane juice follow by hefty dried chili smokes, quite fiery, sweaty and floral, some candy underlay. Clear and clean character. (86/20)

P- Spicy cane, raw and very gummy sweet. Vegetal with green tinge and coat of salts in the middle. (85/19)

F- Medium, peppery, mineral, cane-y and spirit-y. Would be a good base for mixing. (82/17)

B/B- 85/19

Weighted Rate- 75pt

Punchy, grassy, has the floral character - overall very tidy stuff from Clement who I usually don’t rate very highly because of their touristy approach.

Realy nice edition. Bought it in a local Martinique Carrefour.

Da bere liscio, cancellerà ogni cattivo ricordo dei molti mediocri rum bianchi

I chose this to be my first exploration beyond more traditional rums in an effort to expand my palette. Both this Clement and the Premiere Canne were on sale last month but only the Canne Bleue was available from the distributor else I'd have opted for the other as my first being that it's more highly rated.

Now I suppose I may not have the sophistication at this point to appreciate this spirit but this is not to my liking at all. There's something indefinable about the taste of it that puts me off immediately regardless of how I consume it. I've tried it neat, with ice, with ice, lime, and sugar...and every time that discernible element overwhelms the tasting experience for me.

If this is what a typical (or even exceptional) agricole tastes like you can keep them as far as I'm concerned. Does anyone have a suggestion for what I can drown this in to make it palatable? Ugh.

Duidelijk een andere smaak dan de gewone blanc van Clement, vind deze wel lekkerder. Typische Martinique funk is duidelijk aanwezig. Kan puur gedronken worden ondanks de 50% abv. maar ik gebruik hem voor in de Ti'Punch.

Il est certainement avec Neisson et Reimonenq cœur de chauffe un de mes blancs préféré. Très aromatique, pas d'agressivité et prédominance du goût de canne. Parfait en Ti Punch!

Jeg var fornyelig til romsmagning med Mads Heitmann fra romhatten.
Denne hvide rom var den første vi fik lov at smage på.
Jeg syntes nu den var en smule skarp med noter af eg .
Ikke en rom jeg vil anbefale at drikke rent.

Smell is nice, but this is the only plus of this rum. So strong body and aftertaste with alcohol taste. Not for me.

Warm, grassy nose. Subtle brine. Not as much grass on the nose; it's sweeter. Very cane-y. With time, some plastic. This rum is fantastic! Tasty on its own, but I can't wait to try this in a Ti' Punch someday...

8, 8-

Floral nose, round and balanced. Cant go wrong with that affordable rum.

Having tried their regular white rhum I naturally had very high expectations. While its still good I didnt like it as much as their regular white one. There seems to be some harsher undertone which I can't describe exactly.
