Karukera L'Intense 2018
Sip it neat or build a ti-punch — this Guadeloupe blanc agricole works both ways. Expect grass, lemon and fresh sugarcane up front, with a floral, peppery bite and a hint of vanilla custard. At 59.9% the alcohol is surprisingly well-integrated, and one taster even caught banana when it opened up. The nose reads a touch thin, but the palate and long, minty finish carry it.
The community says- Fresh grass and citrus
- Well-integrated alcohol
- But: Slightly thin nose

Aggregated from 20 community reviews.
Grassy, citrus-forward blanc agricole for ti-punch Fans of white agricole rate it well — grassy, citrusy and floral with a warm, long finish. The alcohol sits nicely for the strength, though the nose comes off a little light.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
19.12.2020 Nice tasting shortly before Christmas in a private area of the bar. Unfortunately this very old bar closed down in 2023. Notes Clear in colour. Nose Fresh, intense, Agricole, grass, citrus, light floral. Palate Warm, fresh, Agricole, grass, citrus, floral. Finish Long, warm, citrus, sugarcane.
Review by Sylvain44
A nose of greedy sugar cane, pancake batter, fresh and round, the alcohol is very well integrated. A white rum of tasting a perfection in ti-punch! By draining it, the nose is very carried on the banana, and the mouth a little also, it is very good!
