Boukman Botanical Rhum

First sip and you'll wonder if someone poured you gin by mistake — this Haitian clairin is soaked with wild botanicals, so it's all clove, floral, orange peel and a medicinal herbal edge. One taster called it a "middle ground" between whiskey and gin. Earthy, fresh, not sweet, and the 45% shows. Genuinely unusual rather than easy.

This rum is made in the spirit of the revolutionary Dutty Boukman in mind. Boukman was transported to Haiti as a slave, but became a leader of the “Maroons” (independent societies of escaped and free black people) and a voodoo priest. In 1791, Boukman ignited the Haitian Revolution, swearing an oath to liberty that was toasted with rum. Boukman was soon killed by French colonist but, the movement he started eventually freed Haiti, and defeated Napoleon’s armies. Boukman produce their rum (or spirit drink) in the traditional Haitian way, similar to a local spiced moonshine. The Clairin base comes from two different distilleries.

Quite interesting but 70€ are absolutely not justified for a spiced clairin and in addition, the alcohol could be much better integrated. Since I prefer to buy 2 real clairins like Sajous or Rocher...

#4437 Whisky & Rom Festival 2023 28.10.2023 Notes. Not the world's best rum but probably a good mixer. Lightly fruity with herbal and medicinal notes. After resting a light floral note appears.

It's not my rum, but it's okay. Quite floral and herbal on the nose and palate, but not really round. But I have to say, I found @Stefan Persson's story about this rum really interesting. And the automatic translation in this app is also 1000x better than on guugel :-)

It's not my favorite, but it's a good rum, very floral, very herbaceous, reminiscent of the Provence region, but very fresh and surprising!

At a tasting at my wine shop, I thought: what is this! It's not ordinary. I buy!!!!! Coming back to it, it's not ordinary but to say it's good... a taste that makes me wonder... unique... But... the But really punctuates the tasting.

A bit too sweet, but quite pleasant when you're not a fan of spiced rum, more woody with cinnamon and orange peel, well balanced overall.

Another quite unique bottle from the outside and the inside. Very earthy and fresh and technical at the same time, herbals, grass, floral, spices, medicinal... I quite enjoyed it, another quite crazy Haiti.
