A very pleasant white rum, not very acidic, which will go perfectly with a ti punch. Very pleasant on the palate.

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.

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.
