Rhum Clement X.O.

Complex and unique. Not what I expected out of a rum but that’s not a bad thing. Expectations can be restraining. Expect nothing and at the same time be open to everything. This is the way to live life. So basically before I had this rum I was living life poorly or at least leading a flawed existence. I had forgotten the mantra. Now though the scales have fallen from my eyes and they are lifted up and I am free. Not saying you will have the same experience, you probably won’t, and chances are you’ll just get to know and strongly like a unique rum. Enlightenment comes in many forms. Today mine came in this handsome little bottle. Maybe yours will come in the form of a ridiculous meandering written rum review. Or maybe you’ll just barely avoid being struck by a bus. Enlightenment comes in many forms.

Differente dagli altri Rum assaggiati in precedenza. Al naso ha un sentore che ricorda un po’ il Whisky. O forse me lo sono inventato. Molto gradevole all’olfatto, complesso al gusto. Buono.

On the nose some chocolate, floral, grass , the same on the palate with a dry finish. The taste is very different to rum made with molasses, less sweet.

Nose: vanilla, baking spuces, wood Palate: silky, first, vanilla sweet, a bit rough towards late palate Finish: brandy-ish, medium long, wood

Very hot. Nowhere near as smooth as others of this price range.

Citrus, sweet vanilla
