Antonio Bleve's assessment of this new edition of Pacific Oblivion
You never forget your first love... Impressively, it was in 2009 that our first Fiji 2001 was bottled. A lifetime seems to pass by. So many differences, changes, memories and things that mature. Beautiful, fast, seductive. This rum hits with courtesy and kindness and reminds us that quality is always a subjective concept. You can love or hate Fiji. As with any passion and love in our lives, the risk is to get involved in it and become obsessed with it, to get caught up in it and become obsessed. We choose to lose ourselves in the glass, each rotation of which produces bold fragrances and scents. We are adrift, at sea, disoriented. At the tasting, we are reassured. It's actually as we imagined it. On the nose: provocative through classic timbres that we have become adept at recognizing. Waxy with lacquer tips. The medicinal and dried fruit notes may evoke the title of "the most peaty rum". The palate is tickled as if by trickles of water caressed by oars. A fiery sensation veering towards vanilla, licorice, mint and spices, such as pink pepper and nutmeg.
