Velier Chelo Clairin Sajous 2023

Made for people who want raw sugarcane spirit with nothing rounded off. This Haitian clairin is unaged and runs on fresh cane juice, grassy herbs, olive and a salty edge, with berry and pineapple fruit cutting through. At 55%, it's oily and hot — one taster compares it to a funky fruit brandy. Edgy but coherent, and it turns a daiquiri into something people rave about.

My first Clairin – and immediately an exciting experience. On the nose first fruity (forest berries), then with some air clearly more herbal and slightly funky. On the palate surprisingly creamy, with a fresh, slightly sour fruit that blends well with herbs and a subtle saltiness. Edgy yet harmonious. Not for every day and I mean that positively.

Drank in a great cocktail bar in Bremen. Nice fruity clairin, somewhat berry-like actually as another taster noted, a bit like a funky fruit brandy. But also salty, ester glue. Fun to drink. Very strong burning taste due to relatively high alcohol. But it fits, doesn’t stand out.

Sugar cane, smoked olive, a bit of exotic fruits. Good, balances after the attack on the palate.

8.5/10
Sajous is probably the best known among the clairins and also the most appreciated. I confirm. I've tried several batches and, each with its own peculiarities, they confirm a good nose and palate. If you try it in a daiquiri, you'll be amazed. Try it to believe it. Approved.
