Renegade Pre-Cask Hope (Boulders) 2019
Olive, brine and nail polish lead the way — this unaged Grenada cane-juice pot-still spirit reads more like a distiller's study than a finished rum. Underneath sit sugar cane, citrus and a mineral, almost leathery edge one taster compared to A1710. Bottled at 50% before it ever saw a cask, it splits the room hard: intriguing to some, undrinkable to others.
The community says- Olive-brine character
- Mineral cane edge
- Very polarizing

Aggregated from 14 community reviews.
Raw, savoury cane spirit that splits the room Genuinely polarizing — scores swing from near-perfect to dumped-down-the-sink. Fans find it fascinatingly savoury and raw; others just can't get past the solvent-and-olive assault.

Review by Léo Delek
A very mineral note with a hint of leather that reminds me of a1710 from Martinique.
Review by TheJackDrop
This is clearly a UFO. It's hard to rate this rum because it's clear that we're dealing with a study rather than a finished product, and at the same time it's intriguing. Solvents, brine, olive without hesitation, but also some fruit, smoke, a mineral side... an enigma!

Well... A difficult case here😬😬 Some guys love the rums from Renegade, but a lot of them don’t like them, because of the strange character.😆 I found this one relatively good, less mechanical workshop flavors, but more sugar cane and vegetal aromas.

Something special...
Review by X-Savior
This is aweful. Dumped it out as I could not finish it. Be careful, it will ruin your palette for the day. It has extremely strong smell and flavour that will overwhelm you.

Nasty Didn’t try mixed and couldn’t finish.
