Renegade Rhum Blanc Pre-Cask Old Bacolet

Most tasters agree on one thing here: the nose is the star, the palate a step behind. Expect fermented fruit, olive, vinegar and a raspberry note that lands somewhere between a Clairin and a fresh agricole. On the tongue it turns dry, mineral, salty and a little metallic. Several found it a real challenge neat but a fine daiquiri base.

How does Renegade Rhum Blanc Pre-Cask Old Bacolet taste?

Aggregated from 32 community reviews.

Funky white cane rum, better mixed than neat Loved for its wild, Clairin-like nose; a few feel the dry, salty-mineral palate doesn't keep the promise. Tough sipped neat, much happier in a daiquiri.

I’m a bit disappointed… I expected a bit more “garage feeling” notes 😎😬 It remind me on a Clairin, but a more balanced and enjoyable one. Nose: fermented, vinegar, vegetal, olive, grass, hokkaido pumpink 😎, sugarcane, hones and a cool raspberry note Palate: olives in a salt lake, grass, raspberry, sour, charred Finish: medium long fruity and vegetal

Exciting project is this. 5 pre-casks. Pure terroir test.Nose: fermented fruit, fruit esters without end and also some fruit vinegar. Sweet-tart. Raspberry right up front, maybe elderberry or sloe. A honey sweetness and something very slightly mineral.Palate: like an Obstler raspberry spirit, the fruit is there but then quickly disappears and makes way for a mineral, slightly salty, metallic note. Hay and a light fruity essence on the finishVery similar to Clairin and also to River Antoine.

Fermented fruity nose with a strong note of olive and truffel, with a slight aroma of cucumber water. In the taste it is spicey and comes with a smoked chipotle chilli taste with a mix of dried fruits. I can admit it is comparable with a clairin. Not disappointed

I like the nose better than the palate here. The nose reminds me a lot of Clairins (specially the SonSon) … i smell Olive but also the earthy heavy side of black truffle. Also acidity like a fruity raspberry vinegar. A spectacular stretch in between clairin and agricole. On then palate then turned down some steps and a fruity (raspberry again) and mineralic (salt) taste that is dry. Taste is great but somehow not what i expect when nosing. Makes an awesome Daiquiri.

Pretty intense on the nose. Less in taste. Nose even a bit mezcal/tabacco. Less in taste though. Quite soft in the mouth too. Interesting, pretty drinkable stuff. Not very outspoken but a nice mixture of subtle flavours.

Expert review by Zucker und Zeste

The nose is very intense and reminds me of a Clairin. In the mouth, it is more like a fresh and somewhat more complex Agricole. I like it.
