Blind Advent calendar by Simon : Sample 5.1 * Nose: herbal, vegetal, sugar cane, citrus fruit * Mouth: cane, vegetable, lemon, smoky Clairin Sajous ?
Review by Morgan Garet
Super rapport qualité/prix mais, à mon sens, en dessous des cuvées 2012 et 2016 plus gourmandes. Pour des ti punchs de qualité supérieur c'est le rhum idéal.
Review by thomas fraboulet
Citron vert, agrumes, poivre léger. Très équilibré, onctueux
Review by Bernard Lobato
Perfect Like every time
Review by Norbert Sas
A good agricole that shouldn't have been diluted. tl;dr: Very pleasant vegetal taste that just ends abruptly and the mild taste of the water comes up.
