Romdeluxe Le Galion Batch II
Opinions swing hard on this one — it hits you with a wall of medicinal, hospital-like intensity that some find fascinating and others can't finish. Underneath the iodine and olive brine sits grass, citrus and a run of fermented tropical fruit. Unaged molasses rum from Martinique, bottled at 59% and completely raw. One taster loved it "on a white rum"; another wasn't sure he'd empty the bottle.
The community says- Intense grassy funk
- Iodine and olive
- But: Very medicinal

How does Romdeluxe Le Galion Batch II taste?
Aggregated from 13 community reviews.
Raw, medicinal unaged white rum, love-it-or-not A polarizing white rum — the medicinal, iodine-heavy profile wins over adventurous drinkers and loses everyone else. Nobody calls it easy, and that's rather the point.

Review by Émile Shevek
The nose is heady and assertive with solvents, cherries, strawberries, maracuja, melon, citrus, fermented and a little roasted, a true Grand Arome. The palate is rich with seasoned/fermented, overripe and unripe tropical fruit(melon/papaya/strawberry/pineapple/citrus), vegetables, legumes, pickled olives and umami/roasted on the finish with a sweet and very slight menthol note in the background. A really intense bold and structured taste with an excellent abv and good persistence. I was pleasantly surprised by the only distillery making Molasses Rum in Martinique. In the empty glass fermented/seasoned mixed fruit

Review by Martin Švojgr
I really enjoyed this. For a white rum, it's a blast.
Review by Michal S
Unusual smell and taste, a lot of hospital sensations, I certainly wouldn't consume the whole bottle.
