#4693 06.04.2024 Relaxing at home with a few good rums. Nose Fresh, floral, vegetal, light vanilla, sugarcane, fruity, citrus. Palate Oily, balanced, floral, fresh, citrus, vegetal, herbs, natural sweetness, sugarcane. Finish Medium to long, naturally sweet, oily, citrus, light licorice, herbs. The empty glass has some banana and honey flavours. ABV is very well integrated and price to quality is very good.

Very fruity and floral nose. On the palate lots of herbs, a bit bitter, pepper and honey. Nice and sweet finish.

Distillery

La Favorite 

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.
