A1710 Soleil de Minuit Rhum Extraordinaire 2017
Opinions land in a narrow, respectful band: most tasters call it well-made and balanced, but several admit it's forgettable. You get a fresh agricole start that drifts into wood, with citrus, orange, vanilla and light floral notes and a long, not-too-sweet finish. One reviewer summed up the reservation: "Good but very forgettable." A pretty Martinique column-still rum that quietly does its job.

How does A1710 Soleil de Minuit Rhum Extraordinaire 2017 taste?
Summarized by AI from community reviews.
Balanced agricole, well-made but forgettable Most find it balanced and cleanly made, with citrus, wood and a long finish. The recurring catch: it's polished but lacks impact, so it rarely leaves a lasting impression.

Very nice rum from A1710. Simple profile but does its job correctly. I'm looking forward to see them bottle their own rums.

Good but very forgettable. At this price you can do better.
Review by cigares
A rum tasted in a boutique. A rather complex agricultural nose with well-contained alcohol. Fruity on the palate, with citrus fruit and an interesting vegetal side, including flowers. A slightly short but balanced finish. A fine, well-made rum, but it lacks something to give it emotion.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
28.11.2025 Retasting and still find it pretty good. ---------- Thinking about the name of this rum I think it matches pretty well. It may show you the midnight sun if you drink it around that tone of day. I would have preferred a higher ABV, but it still does its magic. Fruity and sweet with nice floral notes supported by some wood and spices. I made a note that the empty glass had some chocolate and spices.

Nice pleasant balance and a long aftertaste and not too sweet 👏
Review by Djehey
Retasted. A nice balance has been found with this rum. Fresh profile at the beginning then slowly moves towards more woody aromas with a nice length on the palate. The aromas lack impact which makes it unremarkable.
