Cusenier Rhum Rico Martinique 1960s
"A part of history" is how one taster summed it up, and that's really why people reach for this 1960s Martinique bottling. The thing everyone notices is the orange — big, candied, and enough that several members suspect it was helped along rather than grown in the cane. Under it sits caramel, raisin and a woody, cinnamon-dusted base. Sweet and very drinkable, more curiosity than serious sipper.</snapshot> <parameter name="review">Tasters can't quite agree how to score it — some love the juicy orange, others find it too sweet and a bit doctored. Fun old oddity more than a great rum.
The community says- Big candied orange
- Very drinkable
- But: Tastes doctored

Review by Jakob
Intensive Orangennote. Meines Erachtens nicht nur Rum, hier wurde geschmacklich wahrscheinlich etwas nachgeholfen. Das Pairing mit dem orangigen Einfluss funktioniert für mich sehr gut und schafft ein extrem süffiges, cocktailartiges Profil mit präsenter Rumbasis. Gefällt mir gut, ist aber ein geschmacklicher Grenzgänger.
Review by zabo
Zuallererst sehr schwierig dieses Teil einzuordnen. Durfte zum Glück noch einmal von Jakob probieren, bevor er den Rest der Flasche am Catawiki Stand eingepackt hat. Interessant ist dieser auf jedenfall. Aber die Orangenote wirkt ein wenig nachgeholfen.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Für die damalige Qualität außergewöhnlich gut. Danke Jakob für die Möglichkeit! Tolle Frucht, Alkohol gut integriert, ungewöhnlich orangig.
Review by Lukas Jäger
Probiert auf dem 12. GRF bei Catawiki: krasse Orange, insgesamt sehr süß, aber spannende Abfüllung
