V&B Clément Small Batch (Sélection par V&B) 2020
Dark for a 3-year-old, with a woody, spicy core — toasted oak, nuts, dark chocolate and coffee, laced through with the grassy sugarcane you expect from Martinique agricole. It stays dry despite the bourbon barrel, and at 57% it speaks loudly but stays composed. One taster called it "pur agri martiniquais," and that's the draw. Not a smooth crowd-pleaser, but a characterful cask-strength pour.
