The nose opens with a cane confection, like a fruity candy, a barley sugar flavoured with yellow lemon. This lemon becomes greener and more exotic after a few seconds, it naturally introduces the cane, like in a fresh ti'punch.
With aeration, the focus shifts 100% to fresh cane, with a touch of bagasse and pepper giving it an almost tannic quality. The notes of fermentation hover quietly in the background, ensuring a lively profile.
The palate is rather soft on the attack, and we discover a well worked, rounded rum, which took the time it needed before coming to us. The cane is full, straight, serious and mature. Its sweet juice is just seasoned with pepper and lime.
The finish is round too, and we are left with a fat rum sensation that has smothered anything that might have been left.
