Spirit of Haiti Clairin Le Rocher

This one is feisty! On the nose, roasted bananas and cream backed up by cooked agave and a touch of rich riverbank loam. Aniseed and white chocolate develop. On the palate, softer and sweeter than expected from the nose, with the bananas back and paired with sultanas and baked apples. Some petrol and black licorice. A real treat!

Clairin Le Rocher is produced using syrup made from the varietal Cristalline in Saint Michel de l’Attalaye. Syrup is brought to the distillery and diluted until the brix level is advantageous for natural fermentation with the natural yeast of the area. During the very long fermentation, dunder from the previous distillation is added to boost the level of flavor intensity.
