How does this rum taste?
RumX members praise its elegant balance and orange-peel, vanilla nose with warm wood and caramel. Orange peel, vanilla, coffee and tobacco follow on the palate, with cinnamon spice and a long, dry finish. Smooth and expressive at 43.5% (some would like more punch), it evolves in the glass. This 22‑year Martinique agricole from Saint James is limited to 6000 bottles and is highly rated by 111 reviewers.

I have a bottle of this rum on the way and I know now that it was a good choice and that I need to order at least one more for my collection. A blend of 3 different years and blended to near perfection. Not as oaky as the previous one but still very well balanced. Clear Agricole flavours and lightly dry with fruits, spices and chocolat. My advice is to buy while you can.
WoW 😍 What an amazing J. Bally Blend! Nose: Fruity, fresh, woody, cinnamon! All the typical Agricole notes. Very round and inviting! Btw it draws really nice curtains in the glass. Mouth: Very round and delicious with all the tastes you‘ve found in the nose. The alcohol is integrated very well. Finish: Long, dry, smooth and delicious 🤤🤤🥃 Really a perfect agricole!
Un beau rhum de Martinique porté sur les fruits secs. Malgré le faible degré, il possède une belle complexité et intensité aromatiques. J'en ai acheté une bouteille. Je le trouve superbe pour prix. C'est une chance qu'il y en ait encore autant sur le marché !
What a great drop! Initially I would have scored it a 8.6 +/-. But after a few weeks and several „tastings“ I find it improved even further, especially on the palate. So, give it time and air and you will be rewarded with a well balanced and complex agricole. Taking the price into concern (around 120€) you get a lot for your money.
