Hi beloved rhum addicts,
Here are some inputs / sharing informations from the Brussels/Bruxelles Rhum Festival (https://brusselsrhumfestival.be) I had the chance to attend this week-end.
First of all, it was a really cool event, cheap (<20€ for entry and tokens), in a old bank, the “salons” / différents rooms where very intimate.
You can try 5-10 bottles of 60+ distilleries (for free, or 1€/try !! insane ) with advices from vendors of premium-spirits (this maybe the only negative point, vendors are not all equals and some just read their papers… but some are greats too and are real rhum professionals).
After a day of tasting, you have a merch where you can buy bottles with -15% discount (prices are finally almost the same prices at best only shops - except for French products).
Among all tasting we’ve done, some of my preferred stuffs :
- J.M 2004
- Neisson XO
- A1710 Renaissance (and all A1710, this was crazy)
- Sao Can 20 y
- Longueteau 62
- Papa Rouyo “Rejeton”
- Takamaka !
- Clairin
Few images to come below… thanks for reading my first sharing session !
