Bayou White

When I opened the bottle, I smelled a bit of Captain Morgan White. Not really a compliment.
A strange smell that I cannot properly describe. Something chemical. The rum is very soft but also has a strange taste, not something I like. That's why I can't make it 8.

Klare Farbe, extraktreich.
Aromen von Zuckerwatte und gebrannten Nüssen.
Feinwürzig, leicht süßlich.
Warm, füllig mit mittellangem Abgang.
Etwas einseitig.

This lovely white rum is made in Lacassine, Louisiana, deep in the Cajun swamp lands that share the same name with the spirit in question, the Bayou.
Although the rum is made from both molasses and raw sugar it reminds of the earthy qualities of an agricole style rum.
After this unique mash is blended and fermented the rum is distilled with a copper pot still and rested for 40 days on American oak. Having taken home medals for best white rum at many competitions over the last 8 years, this beautiful cane product deserves a place in your heart as well as your liquor cabinet. Drink it neat or make a killer daiquiri for you and your friends.

This is a lovely, tasty white rum! Had no expectations, but hey - I do like this. The spirit is alive with flavours, and the product does seem naturally so. Well done!
