Rhum House Chamarel Ile Maurice 2016
One member calls this the best Chamarel they've tasted, and the nutty side is why. Roasted hazelnut and nougat lead, with juicy orange peel, dried apricot and buttery pastry behind them. It turns dry and a touch astringent late, with a clear almond bitterness in the finish. At 56% it starts thin on the palate, then the aromas build and take hold.
The community says- Roasted hazelnut
- Complex nose
- But: Thin first sip

Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Sehr sehr spannender chamarel und der wohl für mich bis dato beste! Schöne intensive Note nach gerösteten Haselnüssen, Popcorn und etwas Nougat, saftige Orangenschale, getrocknete Aprikosen und Spritzgebäck, außerdem leicht bitter und holzig, ein bisschen Bienenwaben und Kräuter und hintenraus sehr trocken und etwas adstringierend. Gefällt mir überraschend gut!
