Hors d’âge Agricole

On the nose burnt sugar, spice, citrus, pears and a hint of roast and cask.The palate is very floral, but also fruity, woody and spicy, with some balsamic and peppery notes that add up to a woody long, full-bodied and finely toasted finish. Peculiar and loaded with personality, wonderful surprise and very integrated abv.(The score fluctuates depending on the tasting between 91-92)

First time tasting isautier and it is a real masterpiece!Intense, you can feel the fruity part and you can feel the cask part which is not invasive and gives a nice complexity to the palate!The hints of citrus make you want to always have another sip more!I was very impressed!

Great Agricole, complex, balanced, matured to the point.

Ja, der Alkohol könnte etwa besser integriert. Aber es bleibt bislang für mich die beste Isautier Abfüllung. Tolle Agricolnote mit Aprikosennoten, Holz und viel Gewürz. Dazu nicht zu süß, aber auch nicht zu trocken.

Very good and complex rum...I find better than the other Isautier 16.

Je préfère clairement l'agricole que la mélasse. Je le trouve plus harmonieux plus élégant et plus complexe. De plus, pour moi l'alcool est un peu mieux intégré dans celui-ci. Très belle sélection

Wow. I'm impressed. Also the price. Has everything a traditional Agricole should have. Once again in the retasting in the glass and really a great piece. I would buy it again immediately for the price of around €160.

On the nose a pleasant note of roasted orange peel, apricot and woody influences.The palate is clearly woody, slightly bitter and toasty!But also delicate fruit notes and grass spread! The whole seems very complex and intense!The alcohol could be a little better integrated, because it is still very present!The finish is initially toasty woody and afterwards the classic grassy flavors develop!A top rum... and Agricole

I like it well, nice Agricole nose with clove, caramel, dried fruit and a subtle freshness. On the palate a nice interplay between tart notes (toasty, black tea) and sweetness (burnt sugar). In the finish charred wood and tannins.

A full, dense Agricole on the nose. Nice fruitiness, citrus and then some tart apple, all perfectly dosed.In the mouth then warm and very, very furry. An interesting, nice animal note (dried hippo poop?😉 Haven't had it in this form before. Short, simple finish.Interesting, full, intense, balanced, alcohol perfectly integrated, Velier.The certainly wins at the second tasting to.

Very cool, unusual rum!

Now the Agricole, after the molasses was really great...Nose: also nice intense and powerful. And yes, definitely Agricole. A little fresher and greener, more vinegar. Woody and spicy to boot. The barrel comes through nicely and again I smell the bourbon barrel clearly. The fruit is a bit fresher, green apple with dried apricot. Falls short of the molasses after all. 8.5Palate: oh yes, also very intense, complex and powerful. Spicy-malty. Nutmeg with licorice. Fatty-nutty, maybe a little tonka bean. Has something in the direction of brioche. Somehow also fruity, then rather prune. In the back, however, the Agricole comes through, with grassy sugar cane, plus some licorice. The bourbon barrel is clearly to taste.For an Agricole really damn good, because very complex, spicy and full. 8.9In the end, I like the molasses a bit more. It has even more volume. But both are great cinema for me.

Ein sehr guter Rum, der eine hohe Harmonie in Nase und Mund aufweist, allerdings funkt das Agricole-Profil manchmal dazwischen. Mich stört es etwas, man könnte es aber auch als Zunahme an Komplexität betrachten. Dazu zählen die frischen Grasnoten, Leder und Zitrusfrüchte.

Agricole that tastes like Nutella bread. Also something new.

Erinnert von der Nase her an einen fruchtigen Armagnac. Am Gaumen eine tolle Fruchtigkeit, Aprikose, Mirabelle, Pfirsich, dazu eine schöne Würze. Gefällt mir richtig gut. Der fruchtige Abgang ist mittellang. Sehr schöner Isautier!
