    How does this rum taste?

    • Impressive aromatic profile
    • Rich fruity nose
    • Complex nose and aroma

    The 2012 Rhum J.M from Martinique stands out as an expression of refined craftsmanship, distilled from sugar cane juice and aged for nine years in Limousin oak barrels. This limited-edition cask strength rum, with an ABV of 42.3%, reveals a complex aromatic profile featuring notes of mango, vanilla, and tropical fruits. Users appreciate its appealing nose, blending tropical fruitiness with woody undertones. While its rich aroma captivates, some find the palate a bit muted, with a spicy yet fresh taste that may seem thin to some. A treat for those who value aromatic depth in rum, every bottle offers a unique sip reminiscent of the Caribbean.

    "Overall an complex, aromatic and powerful Agricole vintage Brut de Fut from Rhum J.M that I tasted at the Sweden Rumfest 2023 in Stockholm. I’ve before tasted most of their regular range and liked them all. This vintage doesn’t disappoint either. Rhum J.M is produced up in the northeast of Martinique at the Bellevue Distillery (btw a very common distillery name). It’s an AOC Agricole distilled December 2012 produced from their own sugar cane that’s aged in Limousin oak barrels before bottled in May 2022. So it’s 9yo."

    "A lovely nose of fresh dates, figs, well-integrated oak and a hint of pastry. The palate is disappointing, too thin, diluted with apricot. The finish is medium-bodied, with a herbaceous edge. The empty glass is more on the old varnished wood and pastry side."

    "Ein guter Agricole Rum, der in der Nase wirklich sehr beeindruckend wirkt. Sehr intensiver Geruch nach tropischen Früchten und Gewürzen. Leider fällt er im Geschmack und im Abgang deutlich ab. Hier ist er leider zu flach bzw. zu wässrig."

    "A good to very good rum... A nose combining herbs, licorice and a hint of wood drowned in fruit... A palate that lives up to the nose... With a touch of freshness. A medium to long finish, while retaining the aromatic aspects discovered on the nose..."
