Balanced, fruity-tobacco 15‑year sipper A solid stepping stone for those building their palate: this 15‑year Rivière du Mât (46%) is a balanced sipper with baked apple, exotic fruits, vanilla, tobacco and gentle oak. Members enjoy it neat after dinner and rate its value and complexity highly for the age.
Curious explorers wanting a reasonably priced, well-aged molasses rum with fruity, spicy and light tobacco notes rather than heavy funk or sweetness.
Those seeking cask-strength power, very sweet profiles, or ultra-rich, full-bodied sippers; some find it a bit light and the dry finish not ideal.

Aroma:Alcoholic-sweet, round with toffee.Aromas of chestnuts,tobacco, oranges and chocolate.Taste:Light, fresh and spicy with some caramel pudding in the mouth.Pleasant spicy-woody when swallowed Tastes like cake batter and licorice.Finish:Medium length, dry, woody and faintly bitter.Conclusion:Absolutely delicious and pleasant. Only the aftertaste is too dry and bitter for me.

Rhum très épicé avec quelques notes florales et fruités. Ca le fait plaisir car ça change de ce que je goûté d'habitude. Pot pourri, poire, caramel, ..

01.11.2019 Den Dansk Rom & Whiskyfestival This was my first visit to this two day event, where everything is included in the ticket. Also the first event where I have seen so many extremely drunk people. This event usually just has what's considered mainstream products, but luckily my friend had the right contacts so for a premium we had our own little collection to go through. Today I get free a free ticket if I want to attend 😊 Price to quality is very good on this release. Medium fruity with nice floral notes. The palate is lightly dry and fruity with nice caramel. The finish is medium long and medium dry with wood and caramel.

Very green and vegetal rum. I find this rum very special but also very light .... It's a bit of a shame, I would be curious to taste the same one but in raw cask.

Complex and cheap rum compared to the taste
