Review by Jeremie Edde
Pas terrible du tout! Le plus mauvais clairin que j'ai goûter. L'alcool est vraiment mal intégré et le fut de caroni na pas marqué le jus..
Review by Benoit Mahe
On retrouve au nez une certaine aigreur, un peu de colle et de caoutchouc (Caroni oblige) et une pointe d'agrumes. L'ensemble est assez rond et pas désagréable. La bouche commence avec le caoutchouc puis on retrouve l'aigreur du nez (vinaigre de cidre, eau de vie de cidre). On sent en fond des marqueurs légèrement pâtissiers. La finale est moyenne sur la pomme caramelisée. On sent que le fût de Caroni a bien marqué le Clairin. Un rum pas désagréable mais pas très séduisant non plus.
Review by Kay Meertens
Spicy / peppery. Fig, kiwi, galia melon and vanilla. Not that fruity for a Clairin though. The short maturation maybe doesn't make that much sense to me, rather longer or otherwise not at all I'd say.
