    How does Rhum House Domaine de Courcelles Rhum Vieux Édition 2008 1972 taste?

    World-class cherry-vanilla Courcelles legend
    Who is this rum for?

    If you enjoy complex old Demeraras or Velier Courcelles, this is a must-try: same depth and age, but with that wild cherry-yoghurt twist the community is crazy about.

    Not really suitable for

    Beginners, those sensitive to 58% ABV, or drinkers who dislike very perfumed, sweet-fruity profiles and don’t want to spend big on rare bottles.

    Aroma

    Vanilla Cinnamon Cherry Woody

    Auf dem 11. GRF verkostet und sich danach noch 5 cl als Sample abfüllen zu lassen war ein MUSS. Wann hat man so etwas schon mal im Glas? Götternektar. 😋😋😋

    Auf dem 11. GRF probiert. Ich bin froh, dass ich die Möglichkeit hatte diesen Rum probieren zu dürfen. Ein göttlicher Rum.

    Part of the rum Olympus. You should have had it in your glass once - or as often as you can. Independent, unique and not just a world of its own in terms of taste. Impressive!

    Auto-translated

    WOW… so einen Rum hatte ich noch nicht im Glas… flüssige Yoghurette in Rum !! Einzigartig, am Gaumen dazu eine präsente aber sehr gute integrierte würzige Holznote… Ein absoluter Genuss
