WL 2024 Belle sélection à prix lmdw, pas suffisant pour que ça s'envole des rayons. Probablement soldé à son juste prix l'année prochaine!
Review by TheRhumhoe
Un JM au profil jeune mais aguerri, qui s’exprime au nez à travers divers fruits jaunes exotiques, secs (raisin) et confits. On décèle une canne gourmande et gorgée de sucre, ainsi que des épices (piment, poivre, muscade, vanille) étalées sur un boisé plutôt noble. Le profil olfactif est plutôt rond et aérien, lui octroyant de la légèreté aux narines. L’attaque en bouche est plus sèche, plus végétale avec des notes d’herbes aromatiques. Les agrumes, notamment l’orange, prennent le relais sur la partie fruitée, tandis que les épices et le bois conservent leur panache. Le profil est équilibré sur le plan aromatique et l’alcool est très bien intégré au profil. La finale, de longueur correcte, demeure tout aussi sèche mais riche en arômes. On oscille entre les épices, le côté agricole et végétale mais aussi les fruits (orange, fruits secs et tropicaux) et une touche de sel qui apporte pas mal d’élégance en fin de bouche. Un JM solide, agréable et qui ravira les amateurs de rhums agricoles plus intenses qu’à l’accoutumée.

Sehr interessanter Rum. In der Nase viel Holz und Gewürze sowie einen Hauch von Honig. Im Geschmack dann auch wieder viele Gewürze und vorallem kommt im Nachgang Pfeffer zuk Vorschein. Sogar leicht scharf. Schmeckt mir gut

#4867 Whisky Live in Paris 27.09.2024-30.09.2024. Another great event meeting a lot of RumX new and old friends. This year three weren't as many new releases as in 2023, but I still had a great time. Nose Light, fresh, fruity, light vegetal, spice, sugarcane, light wood. Palate Light, light wood, round, vegetal, light floral, fruits, light orange, light sugarcane, spice, medium dry. Finish Medium long, light wood, light dried fruit, light orange, , vegetal, medium dry. This is also a pretty young release but has more bite than the 2016 release. I'd say there is a bit more umph in this release, but I do still prefer the 15 year old ones from the 80s.
