Clairin Sonson 2018 is a traditional cane spirit hailing from Haiti, produced by Stephan Kalil Saoud at the Sonson Pierre Gilles distillery in Cabaret. This artisanal rum is made from locally grown Madame Meuze sugar cane, using fresh sugar cane juice and traditional methods, including a week-long fermentation with wild yeasts and distillation in small copper pot stills.

The nose is greeted by an enticing symphony of citrus notes, including orange zest and ripe lemons, complemented by green grass and white pepper. The palate reveals a delightful balance of fresh sugarcane, vegetal undertones, and a distinctive, complex finish. The 53.2% ABV delivers a warming sensation, while the vibrant citrus and tropical fruit nuances elevate the tasting experience.

With its raw purity, surprising complexity, and bold character, Clairin Sonson 2018 is an exceptional rum that will captivate and delight even the most discerning rum connoisseurs.
