Smoke and peat in a rum — that's the whole trick here. Ferroni's Boucan d'Enfer noses like a gust off Islay: peat fire, ash, dry coal, then pears, peach and a little molasses sweetness underneath. One whisky drinker called it an "easy yet enjoyable sipper," and that fits. The fruit and light caramel keep the smoke from taking over completely.

The look inside the bottle
How does Ferroni Boucan d'enfer taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Peated, smoky rum for whisky drinkers People find it genuinely original — peated whisky character on a rum base, well integrated at 50%. The common gripes: it drinks more whisky than rum, and the finish runs short.
Is it right for you?
Yes, if you're after bold, mature, oaky rums for sipping neat.

So whisky is my main drink since 2009. The love for rum started a few years ago. Though I love peated whisky...peated rum can feel a bit too artificial at times. Let's see. Not too much peat in the nose. It's more on the back. A bit ashy. Dry coal. But overal quite fresh. Even a bit agricoly. Peach. Wood. Not bad and certainly not onesided. Taste: a more present peat smoky. Dry ash still. Not dominant. Dried apricot. A tad meaty. Leather. So when reading the other notes I was expecting something heavily peated. But compared to Islay whisky this is way more subtle. Nice fruity notes. Dry. More ashy than peat/smoke. Blend probably contains Panama and Barbados rum. It does not lean towards a particular geography. Pretty much an easy yet enjoyable sipper.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Intense nose of camphorated peat/very smoky. On the palate, there's a profusion of smoke and peat, with hints of agricultural rum (vanilla) and big aroma (red fruit) in the background. Medium finish on peat and gunpowder... A profusion of smoke and peat well suited to mixology for this welcome cocktail. Now to the real subject of the evening: Italy, and more specifically Samaroli... Show must go on ...
Review by TheJackDrop
A wacky experience with Lafroaig that almost made me want to drink whisky! A pretty cool product, it's all or nothing for rum lovers, even if you can still smell the caramel.
Review by Émile Shevek
On the nose burnt sugar, notes of peaty scotch, tobacco and unripe fruit. On the palate it is dry and oily with spicy notes, other very delicate sweet and fruity notes(derived from grand arôme), tobacco, a thread of charred wood, some hazelnuts and all against a background of peaty scotch that almost takes the lead. The finish is quite light and short, in the empty glass roasted, peaty scotch and charred
Review by LukaŽiga
8:The first nose lifts us like a gust of wind, straight to Islay . A peat fire coats a rum with whisky accents. The two spirits meet on the fruit front, with pears, peaches and mangoes and melons. There is actually freshly baked bread to be scent, the cereals are coated in molasses, butterscotch and honey, it gradually softens and becomes more like real rum with herbal notes despite some hints of smoked meat, pancetta. Aeration softens the nose that rounds out on vanilla and stewed, even jammy fruit. The smoky, iodine notes are present with hints of pepper, now more fermented agricole with notes of cane pulp. 8:The palate is very greedy, very agricole like with flavors rushing and jostling in the opening-ashy, spicy, then fruit overtakes vanilla in this luminous torrent, before the smoky, peaty wood complementing everything. The mid-palate is sweet, savory, with ripe exotic fruits.Then it moves on to more powerful, iodized and deep notes of molasses fermentation and olive. 8:The finish is sweet and chocolaty, with a greasy, oily sensation and agricole notes like berries, blackcurrant, candies, smoke and smooth.
Review by Johannes
Unfortunately not my taste. Must have a whisky finish. But admittedly it is not badly integrated.
Review by Arnaud Faverjon
Rum on the nose, more whisky on the palate, quite subtle peat, a little smoke, try again!
Review by Kay Meertens
In the nose papaya and a little smoke. In the taste more peat, which is something I'm very familiar with but not in rum. Combined with a fruitiness of tangerine and a little peach, that turns out pretty well. A splash of water years it apart, not recommended. In the finish the chocolate-y peat is dominant. As it's the case with many peated whiskies, complexity is not a strength. However, the combination of the peat with the right dose of sweetness makes it really more-ish.

une pure merveille de canne fraiche
Review by Jus Liens
Rum that clearly leans towards whisky. Peat and smoke are felt on the nose and palate and close the tasting. A coherent, balanced rum, quite refined even though it has a rather unique peated rum identity. Original and consensual. The 50° are very well integrated. The finish is very short, too short. In the end: very pleasant rum but not memorable. Not overpriced, but not entry-level either. I don't know who this rum is aimed at. I think I'll buy it again at 30€. At 45€, I'd rather add 6€ and take a Clairin Le Rocher which is also aimed at whisky drinkers but plays in another category. Finally, maybe it's aimed at a peated whisky drinker who's tired of spending 70€ on a bottle and would rate this 7.5 or even 8.
