We had a nice tasting the other day and I have to admit that this one was a bit disappointing though not bad.

La Favorite – Le Brut Cœur de Rhum 2016 – 50.7% Limited edition of 1,000 bottles, this Brut Cœur de Rhum was selected to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Maison Dugas. It is a blend of 2016 barrels, aged 4 years, then bottled as cask strength at 50.7%. A pleasant rum, marked by a nice freshness, light woodiness and some spicy notes. Admittedly, it lacks a bit of complexity, but let's not forget it is only 4 years old.

Avg Rating 8.1/10 over 220 Rums

La Favorite is the last working distillery inside Martinique's capital, Fort-de-France, and the island's longest continuously family-run house. Five generations of the Dormoy family have made rhum here on a 1906 steam engine that still turns the mill. It is agricole at its most unvarnished, and the community treasures its old La Flibuste vintages as some of the finest aged Martinique rum there is.
