What the heck! I'll do a third release from Maison Ferrand while I'm at it. Here you go!

Raw material : Molasses
Fermentation: 3 days
Distillation : 4 Column still
Year of distillation : 2009
ABV: 51.9 %

Nose: Light swirls of caramel and vanilla ice cream. With time deeper sugary notes mixed with tropical fruits. Pineapple on the grill. Light hints of cut grass and green herbs.
Taste: Medium to full body. Rather peppery and warm. Cut grass and dry hay. Tropical fruits and vanilla.
Finish: Medium long finish. Dry and more vegetal now. Light sweetness. Sweet licorice in the end.
Comment: I just love this little adventure of a rum.
Score 89/100
