First off, I am giving this a 9 score because it cost me £25, and in my opinion the quality, depth of taste and the presentation is way beyond this price range. A good honest tasting rum, superb for sipping with an adequate sweetness, but also slightly dry and a full bodied depth of lovely flavours that you generally only get from Rums double this price and "Age". I bought it as a gamble and will definitely buy it again, and again LOL................... I love this stuff !

Nice rum, so far the best I found in Mauritius. Very smooth test and fantastic aroma!

Good vegetal notes on the nose, with some ethanol still. Crisp on the palate with some spicy clove notes and sweet citrus

Staromilsky britský rumík v obyčejnské, poctivé láhvi s obyčejnskou etiketou na dobrém rýhovaném papíru a se špuntem zalitým v čemsi připomínajícím vosk. Zkrátka přesně to, co by našinec očekával od údajně nejstarší palírny na Mauritiu. Nedobarvovaný karamelem (!!!), za studena nefiltrovaný a bez jakýchkoli aditiv. Suchý, jemné vůně i chuti. Žádný "jednopanákový" rum - čím déle ho pijete, tím je lahodnější. Skvělý rum pro milovníky whisky!

Un personne ayant pas mal de diplômes que ce soit en oenologie ou dans le domaine du thé, m'a orienté sur ce Penny Blue, parce que débutant, et trouvant la plupart des rhums trop agressifs.
Et bien moi qui ne jurais que par les rhums arrangés sucrés, je découvre ici un rhum assez complexe, qui rappel la vanille, le bois et le soleil; il chauffe à peine la gorge !
Très bien travaillé.

Facile à boire sec, une petite longueur malgré tout, un 9 pour le respect du produit, et de la tradition (sans ajouts).

A case where the packaging is better than the contents. It's probably not bad, but it's just not for me. The alcohol flavour is very strong.

Dry and woody with a sherry like finish. I would try more of their offerings in the future. Makes me think of sitting under a palm with white beaches as the waves roll in.

Dry, delicate aroma and taste. Very good for it's lower price. The longer you drink it, the more delicious it gets.

I feel this mix of casks here very well. This rum is in the middle between bourbon, whisky and rum itself. A bit spicy but still enjoyable.
78/100

[x] Readily available
[x] Solid aroma and taste

Tasting notes include caramel, vanilla, oak and a bit of honey. All underlined by the typical Rhum Agricole grassiness. It is simple and straight forward. The first couple of sips are amazing, but then it does get boring quite quick. Before you try it, let it open up. It makes a world of difference.
