Most tasters land somewhere around "seriously good, but not for everyone." This is unaged Grand Arôme at full throttle — ester, glue, plastic and a savoury, meaty-salty streak that one member compares to cured meat and cough syrup. It's intense and a little shocking neat, but it makes a killer daiquiri, and reviewers say it keeps improving the longer the bottle breathes.
The community says- Massive ester punch
- Savoury meaty depth
- Keep in mind: Raw meat funk

How does Fine Drams Le Galion Martinique Rhum Grand Arôme Grand Arôme 2020 taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Wild, savoury Grand Arôme ester bomb A love-it-with-caveats crowd: most call it wildly flavorful and great in a daiquiri, though the raw-meat, plastic-ester side isn't for everyone. It rewards air time.

Creamy, meaty, bacony. In the daiquiri comes ne super gooseberry to it.
Review by Stefan L
Sorry to say that I own this this bottle... it’s a real experience indeed with raw meet and mushroom tastes, but really really really really not for me. Unfortunately you will burp this for days after... ————— Wow! Haven’t tasted this bottle in a while and it really seemed to need some oxygen in the bottle, I’m increasing it from 34 to over 70 points, since my first tasting. That is astonishing indeed. It’s almost shocking in a way. - This bottle is really crazy and it kind of getting better each time.
Review by Mirco
Very interesting distillate. Clear but still quite roasty and a little meaty, which I don't usually like. Complex and multi-layered. Makes great drinks but is also fun on its own. PLV, terrific.
Review by Timo Groeger
Yes, I like the Grand Arome very much. Lots of esters on the nose, and plastic as well, somehow very artificial. On the palate, of course, there's also a lot of ester, a very intense rum. The alcohol is well integrated.
Review by Ian Gilman
So much flavor. It reminds me of the wacky flavors of a Clairin—super glue, cough syrup, and cured meat, but in a great way. But so, so good and with a seriously room filling aroma. I would buy a candle of this.
Review by Joël
Surprisingly complex for an unaged.
Review by Johannes
A fantastic Grand Arome!
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
Vintage 2020. With 8.2 out of 10 it is a very good bottle, though not the top of my ranking.
