Review by TheRhumhoe
A lovely Single Cask signed by Karukera. The nose brings out the very pronounced agricultural notes of herbs, flowers, earth, sugar cane and menthol, with a very subtle hint of varnish in the background that makes the difference on the nose compared to a classic agricultural rum. It's surprising to smell this here, and very pleasant. Exotic fruit, lime and dried fruit combine with sweet spices (vanilla, cinnamon) and wood to create a complex, balanced and pleasant blend. On the palate, the attack is still very vegetal and floral, with sugarcane and herbs not far away. The acidity of citrus (lime) and exotic fruit is also instantly apparent. The woody and spicy notes bring a certain dryness to the palate, which finds itself confused by so many relatively opposite flavors, but the blend works well. It's important to remember to aerate the rum for a while, otherwise you'll be faced with a beast that's hard to tame. The alcohol could be a little better integrated. The finish has less impact than the entry, leaving the agricultural dryness, vegetal freshness and spicy warmth as the final tasting impressions. A good agricultural rum that offers a nice tour of Guadeloupe, with an original and appropriately spicy profile.
Review by Émile Shevek
On the nose it is elegant and delicate with hints of wood, dried fruit, tobacco, slight toastiness, citrus, sweet cane and a vegetal touch, excellent. On the palate a bit pungent but then melts, with notes of dried fruit, chili, sweet cane, rubber, vanilla and light wood with tobacco and cognac. The ABV could have been better integrated.
Review by Djehey
Fresh and spicy, with a lovely lime note. The alcohol could be better integrated.
Review by Tendero Pablo
A very good agricultural rum with as much to eat as to drink...plenty of fruit and citrus...
