From the Republic of Haiti comes the highly anticipated Clairin Sonson 2020, a unique and authentic vintage rum.
This spirit is made from a particular variety of indigenous, non-hybridised sugar cane known as ‘Madame Meuze’.
The traditional distillation process takes place over an open fire in a small pot still, showcasing a hands-on, artisanal approach.
The entire process is overseen by Stephan Kalil Saoud, who has been a dedicated sugar cane producer and distiller since 1989.
This 2020 vintage offers a truly unique flavour snapshot of its terroir.
Choose Clairin Sonson 2020 for an authentic, complex, and traditionally distilled single-vintage spirit that offers a vibrant, herbaceous profile unlike any other.
Nose: Fresh and herbaceous with notes of cut grass, basil, lemon grass, and citrus.
Palate: Fruity and frank, with strong notes of fresh cane juice, green grass, orange zest, and white pepper. Some reviewers detect hints of liquorice, ginger, and sweet pepper.
Finish: Medium-long and slightly sweet with a pleasant, spicy kick of ginger and peppers.
