Chalong Bay Distillery The Spirit Of Phuket Lemongrass 2016
A newcomer-friendly cane-juice rum infused with lemongrass. RumX members find intense lemongrass, citrus and herbal notes on the nose, but a soft, very gentle palate. Best used in refreshing cocktails rather than for neat sipping.
The community says- Fresh lemongrass nose
- Very mild palate
- Short finish

Plutôt en cocktail, ça sent fort la citronnelle
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Seems almost perfumed overall due to the lemongrass. Certainly tasty for drinks and overall it doesn't pick me up and could be much more intense and aromatic. On the other hand, as I said, there aren't many infused agricoles!

Pas fans de l’infusion, goût un peu chimique, l’original est bien meilleur!
