Clément VSOP is a rhum agricole, matured for a year in virgin French oak barrels, before a three maturation in re-charred bourbon barrels. This was awarded a Gold by the Beverage Tasting Institute and also received 96 points out of a possible 100 from Wine Enthusiast.
Fruity, green. Orchard fruits, herbal. Oak, vanilla, sweetness.
Light in body, but nonetheless spiced and warming. Crisp fruits, plenty of oak, orchard fruits.
Ends on apple peels, spice and toffee.
Looks great, sounds great but tastes like no rum to me, not a hint of sweetness or flavour, on a blind test you'd swear it was a whiskey.
Awful, waste my money
Very nice rum, and certainly more like a fine cognac. Most of the time i have as a sipping rum with ice, and it is delicious. Ihave tried it in an old fashioned, and it worked very well. I also substituted it for brandy in a Christmas mincemeat recipe ( a recipe by Jane Dunn / Jane's Patisserie), and it was brilliant. Interestingly, even in the mincemeat recipe there was still the grassy notes at the end. It's not unpleasant, just really distinctive.
Tastes more vanilla as the bottle goes down. Bit of grass on the aftertaste. Little or no burn. It has a richness and subtle oakiness that I really like. It's very different from molasses based rum but still very much tastes like rum.
Very good rum. Slightly smoky, smooth and sweet. There's a spicyness to it that you might not expect.
