    The Montebello ZENGA BLACK EDITION (Canne Noire) is a limited release rum produced in Guadeloupe by the Carrere distillery. Distilled in 2022 from sugar cane juice and bottled at an unaged 60% ABV, its aromatic profile is notably minty with hints of sugarcane, lime, and olive. On the palate, it's characterized by a zesty lime note, followed by peppery and buttery undertones. Users pointed out its potent yet complex Agricole Blanc style, drawing comparisons to other well-regarded black cane rums. While some appreciate its unique flavor profile, others find the bitter notes and alcohol intensity a bit overwhelming. Ideal for aficionados of cane noir styles, it offers a noteworthy tasting experience in a refined yet bold expression.

    "#4545 13.01.2020 Relaxing at home. A pretty good release. Fresh and fruity with an oily palate that is spicy and medium dry. The finish is medium to long and spicy with some added licorice."

    "Overall a great Agricole Blanc with typical Montebello aromas and tastes. It’s distilled in January 2022 at the Carrere Distillery and bottled one year later after a year's rest in vats at 60% in 12000 bottles. It’s named after the ZENGA rooster which is considered the leader of the barnyard in the West Indies."

    "Wisky Live 2023, quick tasting session! Surely a fine copy of the Bologna black cane, but is it worth the original? Not sure."
