Nico's tasting notes
In brief: woody - vegetal - fresh - roasted - floral - sweet spices - rounded
The nose is light and vegetal, with fine, fresh woody notes. Caramel emerges on the surface of this lightly toasted woodiness. The light side is characterized by floral and tangy notes that are loaded with fine spices. Vanilla is delicate, neither too round nor too fat, which in fact applies to the whole profile.
Aeration brings out the woodiness, a rather green wood that becomes increasingly vegetal and herbaceous. It continues to round out until it reaches a light, fluid spring honey. Some soft, herbal spices follow delicately.
On the palate, there's a hint of charcoal minerality, immediately swept away by a youthful woodiness with vegetal accents. Vanilla dominates the rest of the finish, coming in plump and round, with a very suave flavor.
The finish is also dominated by vanilla and its sweetness.
"A light rum with a delicate profile, very easy and round on the palate..."
Olivier Vacandare
