Cognac masters have invested a lot in the creation: a loud aroma of French oak and sweet perfume. Taste sensations are very diverse: sweetness, bitterness, oily, astringency, acidity - everything is there, but immature, there is no depth, concentration. The effect of intoxication is heavy minor. Therefore, the second bottle can be bought if the price is lower than Havana club 7.

6-The resolutely buttery nose of this rum does not detract from its expressiveness, which from the very first moments gives an impression of balance. Simple but well orchestrated, it spreads its spices (cinnamon and especially pepper) and roasted nuts. The coconut is soft and slightly roasted, this sweetness balances quite rightly a small metallic and smoky side that flirts with quince paste. This aspect underlines a lively and tense side of the rum which does not spread out in greediness, just like the caramel which is well present but without giving a sweet impression. The candied orange peel has swollen in these vapours and adds thickness.

Aeration is defenitely needed, it takes the power up a notch. The heavier and more concentrated aromas come out with a little polish. At this point, the buttery side is forgotten, the smoky/metallic Trinidadian style asserts itself once again. Jamaica is also present, with its famous "funk" of extremely ripe exotic fruits, and especially banana. More eccentricity then, but also a little more hardness, with a very black wood, although nicely waxed. A cherry or pear brandy bursts at times to bring freshness and dynamism.

7-The entry in the mouth is very soft, with a very light consistency. The tobacco and light leather notes quickly give way to a good woody phase, then to the smoky and metallic side, which itself gradually approaches a very dark cocoa. An oxidised compote of rustic apples brings sweetness and thickness, the balance is quickly established by the toasted wood.

7-The finish is reminiscent of a light metallic touch, molasses, caramel and vanilla.

Instead of 6, the rum gets 7 from me, aeration saved the day for it.

It'll be a mixer, not too bad on ice. Little to no finish.

Reminds me of agricole rum, initial notes are spirit-y, also fruity with a flat aftertaste

Fľaša je veľmi prepracovaná z hrubého skla, s korkovým uzáverom. S kartónikom veľmi vkusná aj ako darček. (vidno, že ho plnia francúzi :))
Farba je zlato-karamelová. Vôňa je ostrá, ale nešpecifikovateľná.
Chuť je hrozienková, vanilková, dubová, mierne nasladlá. Záver príjemne zahreje a pocit pretrvá. Rum je bez pridávania cukru suchší a harmonicky. 42% určite poteší aj na zimnej lyžovačke. Kúpil som ho za 20€ a dali mi aj pohári grátis, tak celkovo ma príjemne prekvapil.

Un beau rhum, belle texture mais manque de longueur.

Not that ordinary rum. Pretty well balanced between sweet and dry, a bit spicy

Rhum intéressant à essayer, pas vraiment un rhum de dégustation.

"Killing you softly" burns at first, but in a good way, you might be surprised

A 5.5 on my scale. Pleasant flavor straight. A bit of an after-burn. Mixed is pleasant too. Found in San Diego and it was a nice surprise that it was from France.
