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
- Less suitable for: anyone wanting sweet or full-bodied sipping

Nutty, dry agricole with a bitter finish The nutty, pastry-driven profile wins most tasters over, though several note a thin, watery first sip and a bitter, drying finish that won't suit everyone.

Amazingly good! Nice nutty, buttery with bourbon notes.

A very interesting rum, as always with Rhum House. On the palate initially rather reserved, somewhat thin. But then the aromas come out in an astringent coat. Nutty, fruity and also distinctly bitter (almond), especially in the finish. Initially subtle, an increasingly strong herbal note comes from the nose to the finish.
Review by cigares
A broad but rather soft nose, with pastry flavors, fruity with wood support. Dried fruits and especially apricot, dry herbs. A beautiful, complex nose. The first sip is clearly disappointing, diluted. Then the aromas come back and eventually gain confidence. A nice bitterness develops. The finish is pleasant, slightly spicy.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very very exciting Chamarel and probably the best for me so far! Beautiful intense notes of roasted hazelnuts, popcorn and a bit of nougat, juicy orange peel, dried apricots and spritz cookies, also slightly bitter and woody, a little beeswax and herbs and very dry and a bit astringent at the back. I surprisingly like it a lot!
Review by Martin Švojgr
Those nuts and nougat are great, a successful rum 😍
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
Vintage 2016. I rate it 8.3 out of 10, very good rum.
