Earlier batches of Casimir I found to be inferior to, say, Clairin Sajous. No more, this is the best clairin I’ve had — probably the best white rum of any kind, ever. Smells of cottonsedge, vinyl, fried banana, sugar cane and anis. Rich, almost viscous mouthfeel and well integrated alcohol. It’s hard to understand other reviewer’s statement on that. Initial flavours of herbs and grass, a bit white oak, fresh red plums, lime and papaya. More fried banana comes through for a long finish, with anise, lemon and herbs.

Of the four bottles of clairin that I recently bought, this one is the second least appealing to me. For all practical purposes, this one is 103 proof and the heat really shows. A few drops of water did not help. A few ice cubes removed the burn, but brought out very few flavors. What I now have here is an expensive mixer.

The cork on this bottle is one of the two that did not fall apart when opening it. The cork for my Clairin Le Rocher totally disintegrated. I have updated that review from a year ago to reflect this.

So much complex, thinking of the price too it’s an amazing deal

Banane, mangue... il y en a ! Très parfumer très agréable à boire en ti’punch
