Tastes

Sipping 3.25, ti punch with minimal sugar and lime (but with ice) 4.75, one of the best ti punches i can make, other mixing 4.25. Fruitier and less earthy than the labat 59, strong cane juice flavor, very "green".

Very earthy, good for ti punch or daiquiri, but I'm missing some of the raw cane juice flavors that other rhums have. Sipping (with some water): 3. Mixing: 4. Since mixing is more important for this kind of rhum, overall 3.75 it is.

Nose o.k. but the taste! So sweet! Didn't see that comming. Sweetest rum/whisky/cognac whatever I've ever tasted. And all about the oak/cask, forget the distilate. Distillery character? Never heard of. Maybe not for me. Or maybe keep it for wintertime, when its freezing outside and then some of this. And why on earth is it colored? Almost offensive. At first I gave it only 2.5, but after comparison with some other rums/bourbons changed it to 3. If you like sweet liquid oak its not bad at all, but if you like cane juice spirit there is no point.

Neat: diluted, simple, boring, easy drink, nothing offensive.

Pot still, both oak and sugar cane forward, like drinking whisky with a (strong) rum flavor. Exelent sipping rum, not so much for mixing, daiquiri or ti punch doesn't work with this kind of rum (for me).

The weirdest I've ever tasted. Could give any score, from 0 to 5. Not so good for daiquiri, a little better for old fashioned, but still weird.

Flavor bomb. For sipping (possibly with water or ice) a 4.5. For a daiquiri a 5! So 4.75 overall.

Sometimes just rhum, sometimes fruity, or oaky, or sweet, and sometimes smokey. Not strong tasting, but strong enough to appreciate. But whish they bottled at higher abv.
