"A very interesting rum that allows itself to be discovered with each tasting. The aromas are in excellent balance with each other. Interesting value for money. We are at a high level!"
"A nice spicy/woody aroma with some leather and tea... I like that very much. There are also some orange peel aromas on the nose and palate that round off the whole thing. A delicious rum to enjoy in the evening The re-tasting on Saturday at Dr. Django. I stand by my rating"
"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!"
