Ferroni Santo Antao Vulcao 45%

RX2805 Good Pot Still Rum Under 50€
“Bold and vegetal with strong solvent notes.”

Vulcao from the Santo Antao distillery in Cape Verde is an intriguing rum distilled from sugar cane juice using a Pot Still, with an ABV of 45%. Noted for its vegetal aroma alongside hints of nail polish, lemon, and solvents, this rum offers a unique taste experience. The flavor profile prominently features solvent and vegetal notes, accompanied by citrus and peppery undertones with some synthetic impressions. While some users appreciate its bold palate and lingering finish, others find the solvent and synthetic elements detract from the overall enjoyment. This rum invites comparisons to similarly raw styles like Clairin, highlighting its fresh cane essence and hints of smokiness. Ideal for those seeking an adventurous tasting session.

“Barbosa, M&G, Vulcao im Vergleich… Nase: pflanzlich, vergoren und leicht vinegar, etwas mehr Zitrone als die anderen beiden. Wieder Sauerkraut und Gurke dabei. Nase dichter am M&G, ganz leichte Karamell-Note und leicht harzig. Gaumen: ähnlich wie der M&G, vordergründig säuerlich, leicht salzig und harzig. Künstlich pflanzlich kräuterig. Eine etwas unangenehme Melisse-Klostein-Mischung. Gefällt auch leider nicht wirklich. Von den dreien ist der Barbosa am gefälligsten.”

“Difficile de trouver des arômes à ce rhum tellement les solvants et l’odeur de vernis à ongle est important. La bouche s’ouvre plus sur la canne à sucre et les épices mais le goût du solvant persiste, pareil pour la fin de bouche.”
