The Nectar Le Galion The Nectar Of The Daily Drams Grand Arôme 2021
Opinions genuinely split here. Some tasters find these white Le Galions great, others get worn down by how salty this one turns — brine and olive on top of green banana, cut grass and sugarcane. It's a Grand Arôme at 60%, unaged and explosive. One reviewer's neighbor summed it up: this is Daiquiri fuel, not a sipping pour.
The community says- Vivid vegetal nose
- Green banana, sugarcane
- Very salty/briny

How does The Nectar Le Galion The Nectar Of The Daily Drams Grand Arôme 2021 taste?
Aggregated from 25 community reviews.
Salty, vegetal white Galion for daiquiris A love-it-or-struggle-with-it Grand Arôme. Vegetal, salty and fruity with real character, but the brine tips some tasters into "too much." Mostly a mixing rum.

#4712 28.04.2024 Unaged tasting at home while relaxing in between the sets with Hulk on bluray 😊 Nose Intense, fresh, vegetal, light grass, lime, banana, light sugarcane, spice. Palate Intense, warm, medium spicy, fruits, lime, vegetal, light floral. Finish Very long and warm, fruity, light lime, light herbal, light sugarcane. The empty glass has some smoke, faint chocolate and minerals.
Review by Johannes
Certainly a matter of taste, but I think the white Galions are great!
Review by Eric Nivaille
A good rum from the Baie du Galion. Exotic fruit on the nose and palate.
Review by Vincent D
Very vegetal and salty nose. The mouth is very salty. Brine, olive. Still banana.a typical Galion.I have trouble with this rum. I find it interesting but this very salty side makes it a bit nauseating.
Review by Djehey
A galleon of fruit and sugar cane. Olive and brine but not as pronounced as I expected. Alcohol is present but in a way I like. Lots of specific aromas are present too. Green aromas (peppers, green banana, herbs, artichoke...) and tertiary aromas (fermented, humus, smoke...). Reminds me of a Martini Pairs well with smoked meat (not too salty).
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Convinces me unfortunately neither pure nor in the daiquiri particularly. Not bad but there are better le Galions.
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
The nose is rather powerful, with vegetal and herbaceous notes ... all of which are wrapped up in the atmosphere of a pharmacist's queue. Blind, we'd have gone to Savanna... On the palate, it's explosive and complex, going off in all directions like fireworks. We're really into something experimental and uncontrolled! It's vegetal, freshly cut grass in the morning, varnish... The finish is as intriguing as ever, like cough syrup, but with a more disturbing salinity. Personally, I wasn't won over by this rum, but some even named it the best rum of the evening (in terms of value for money). But one thing's for sure: it doesn't leave you indifferent...
