A sweet honey wrapper around a medium strong honest taste. A good choice that will not disappoint.

Caramel, vanilla, wood, orange peels, and fruit, also a woody, round taste. Nice long finish.

Aroma: raisins, chocolate and vanilla and that is all actually.
Taste: again very similar to aroma, I noticed vanilla, raisins and little bit of alcohol flavor, fortunately the "finish" was soft and overall really pleasant.
Overall: I have to say I really like the bottle itself (looks like pricey bottle which is not, in my country the price is around 50 €). Overall it is good rum but I forget about it very quickly, it has nothing to remember.

Doux et savoureux. Un bonheur ! Je conseille fortement ce rhum aux personne qui souhaitent découvrir le monde du rhum. Mais ne vous fiez pas à son côté suave, il a plus d'un tour dans son sac.

Very smooth, easy to sip, and definitely naturally sweet. Not super sophisticated but obviously higher quality.

It eludes my mind how rum without any qualities can make it to almost 8. I guess a cool name and packaging. Nose and taste: remotely reminiscent of rum.

Guatemalan rum with a French connection
8
/10
out of 10
According to various internet sources this is a blend of various Guatemalan rums aged anywhere from 6 to 15 years in oak barrels then are aged some more (cannot determine the time frame) in Cognac casks in France.
An interesting backstory.
However not much information given on the rather plain label.
Let's continue...
The hue of the rum is a rich dark amber...a brownish amber. Dark caramel perhaps. It has a very appealing odor (again, my weak point since I am unable to distinguish odors well...I just say it's a nice odor or not).
Nice legs as I swirl it in my snifter.
The flavor is quite intriguing. Definitely a smooth sipping rum. A little oiliness causes it to stick to the tongue well allowing the flavors to settle. It has some pepperiness to it but does not have much of a tannin bitterness although the oak notes are clearly present albeit subtle. A nice caramel and vanilla undertones. No real burn. Instead there is a nice warmth that builds for a bit in the back of the throat and then fades ever so slowly. If the info I found is true and the rum is finished in France in Cognac casks then I understand why it has this subtle sweetness that almost borders on sugaring but plausibly isn't.
Clearly a sipping rum with a nice complexity to it. Excellent rum for the price IF you can find it.
