Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Another wonderful surprise. Very fruity with vanilla and some earthiness to it. I like the oilyness and nuts about this one.
Review by jonathan.p🇫🇷
J aime beaucoup ! Un vrai voyage dans les vrais agricoles ! Un nez d épices et de fruits compotés mixés avec l odeur du fût et quel beau fût ! En bouche, c est également très bon, on y retrouve le fût de chêne mais tres équilibré avec le goût du fruit sur fond d épices. Bref, un très bon rhum de la maison HSE !
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Single Cask 2003-2015 a 47,8%. Il s’agit donc d’un rhum distillé en 2003 et vieilli durant 12 ans en Martinique dans un fût de chêne français unique de 400L. Au nez on sait immédiatement pourquoi le maître de chai a décidé d’en faire un Single Cask. Le cacao apparaît en 1er, suivi de la banane mûre et de la compote de Mamy. En profitant de ce nez magistral, on aperçoit des notes empyreumatiques de base (café et tabac). En bouche c’est moins gourmand mais complexe. C’est plus sec sur des notes de café - tabac. Perso je préfère le nez que la bouche sur ce Single Cask.
