TASTING NOTES :
NOSE: The nose is a festival of exotic and floral aromas. It opens with intense notes of exotic fruits – mango, passion fruit – accompanied by subtle hints of white flowers and fresh citrus (lime, grapefruit). In the background, vegetal touches evoke the richness of freshly cut sugarcane.
PALATE: The initial taste is light, offering a surprising roundness despite its high alcohol content. The complex aromatic profile reveals flavors of star anise and roasted pineapple, adding a gourmet and refined dimension. Gradually, spicier and more floral notes emerge, with licorice, jasmine, and a subtle hint of Sichuan pepper, enriching the rum with rare elegance.
FINISH: The finish is long and persistent, marked by the finesse of Sichuan pepper, which leaves a slightly spicy sensation in the mouth, mixed with floral reminiscences and a fruity sweetness. A final signature that affirms the unique and refined character of this single-plot white rum.
