Good rum, but it still lacks something to go up.

8.0/10

A very surprising Guadeloupean, with a profile that stands out from the usual pure Guadeloupean juices. A little fruity candy with cinnamon. With a very creamy Werther's Original texture. Nice. Easy. Pleasant.

7.9/10

Straightforward agricole notes on the nose. Immediately you get fresh and toasted banana that will persist all the way to the finish, as well as very nice lightly smoky chamomile tea. The nose is rounded off by some squashed grapes, salty seawater and woody juniper berries. The palate is very much alike. Again toasted banana and the chamomile with some sweet, juicy apples mixed in. It’s all very elegant and light. Almost like an aged gin. Quite interesting to see the smoky wood notes sourced from juniper and chamomile. Unfortunately you can taste the overdilution. It’s a lovely rum, that would have been much stronger at higher ABV.

Wirkt etwas dünn. Geschmacklich dadurch etwas nichtssagend.

Expert review by The Dunder Hut

"Oh well these transcontinental rum line runs, especially the early iterations, really know how to hit the marque for what they cost. This one is really what I want from a cheapish Guadeloupe rum. Very solid"
