Gault&Millau's review 2026

Its intense amber color is devoured with the eyes before the nose plunges into the glass to discover the intensity of roasted pineapple, ginger, leather and cigar leaf. All coated with a hint of caramel. On the palate, this intensity is again present, with the greediness of fruit (cherry, fig) and a fleshy, suave texture enhanced by spices. Everything is under control. The long finish, with its woody, cocoa notes, makes this rum an ideal end-of-meal companion.
