Six Saints Gold

J'ai acheter ce rhum sans le connaitre et ce fut une bonne surprise.

Finally; the LC are starting to expand their Rum collection. I had seen this in Quebec a few years ago and passed on it then but I figured I would give it a shot.

All and all not bad; it sort of reminds me of Viscaya 21 on the nose with all that banana; although there is way more of an astringent smell to this one.

The taste has banana and some kind of sour fruit that I cannot discern over the spicy bite.

I like it because it's different; but if I wanted to impress somebody, I would probably reach for a bottle on a higher shelf.

Dintre toate romurile care le-am baut acesta este cel mai diferit. Are in gust foarte fructat, cu nuante de; caise, mandarine, ananas si banane. Mai degraba ar putea fi catalogat lichior.

Cu totul altceva față de ce am gustat pana acum... Seamana cu un lichior de portocale, arome de citrice, foarte parfumat, fresh sipp.

Pas trop sucré, pas trop sec...notes fruitées comme des tranches d'ananas grillées, coco, et touche subtile vanillée...un rhum à déguster juste après un bon repas!

Hailing from the island of Grenada this rum came to me via Total Wine and More out of Jacksonville, Florida. Kind of a roundabout way of getting here.

However this was a rum I was not familiar with so in the interest of adventure I got a bottle to bring home. It has an interestingly pleasant aroma with a bit of alcohol astringency to it. Stings the nostrils just a bit. Not surprisingly since it comes in 41.7% ABV which is a little higher than typical rums. It is a golden straw color and swirling it my snifter leaves it clinging to the sides only to slowly drift back down to the bottom. Nice legs.

It has a rather complex flavor. I seem to detect banana at the beginning. There clearly are other flavors in there but I really cannot pick them apart before the burn hits. Sipping more seems to bring forth some citrus undertones...something akin to orange zest. The finish does bring back that banana flavor. A rum fit for Minions I guess. A little too harsh as a sipping rum in my opinion but good as a mixer.

Je trouve que le gout de l'alcool est très présent, mais a un gout spécial.

Discovered recently this until now unknown Rum (at least to me) and I have to admit that I am very grateful for this now discovered treasure. Love smell and taste soo much ....

Beautifull package, bought this Rum in Paris, excellent taste, not too spicy at all, coconut, vanilla, warm and tasty.

Gust bun,usor aromat,foarte indicat de baut cu 2-3 boabe de cafea.
