Precious wood, campher, red fruits, waxy, fresh cane. So classy, so balanced, so Saint James 😍
For me, the best Agricole I have ever drunk (apart from a 51 Clemént). 😍
Un nez dense et net, du boisé (un bois parfumé), des fruits secs et du camphre. La bouche est généreuse avec du rôti, du bois parfumé et de l’abricot. La finale est longue et très équilibrée, une merveille. Un rhum complexe, profond et équilibré. Whoua ! Le rhum agricole au meilleur de sa forme. Merci Rodolphe pour le sample.
Une bombe, tout simplement. Un rapport qualité prix génial, très au dessus de l’éphémère 7.
