Longueteau Constellation 2022 (Saint-Malo) 2022 Unaged 57,5%

"A very nice unaged release from this destillery. The nose is there as soon as you open the bottle and you're in no doubt that it's an Agricole. Price to quality is extremely good."

"Der stand schon lange auf meiner Liste. Sehr lecker und unverkennbar ein Agricole. pflanzlich mit Citrusfrüchten, Gras und junges Holz... würde den gerne mal mit anderen weißen Agricole vergleichen, eim bisschen hane ich ja noch."

""Very well-balanced, nicely warmed A mix of fruit, herbs and spices with great character... The more you compare it to other whites, the more you realize it's exceptional! To sum up, my tasting notes: Nose: Grass, Citrus, Sugar cane On the palate: Tropical fruit, lime, grass, sugar cane. Finish: Citrus, Peppery"."

"An exceptional white agricultural rum. The nose offers a wide range of aromas, from the fruitiness of exotic fruits (pineapple) and citrus (lemon) to floral and vegetal notes of fermented sugarcane, followed by shimmering spices. Notes of lactic fermentation also emerge after aeration. A balanced, generous rum. Exquisitely round on the palate. Sugar cane, citrus, exotic fruit, grass, spices and notes of fermentation offer a very supple, easy-drinking, well-constructed juice. The alcohol is very well integrated. Aeration makes it even easier to drink. The finish, of decent length, remains in the same tonality as the palate, i.e. tart citrus, floral and vegetal notes of sugarcane, a hint of spice and tropical fruit. The finish is drier and more agricultural, but still delicious. An excellent white rum, superb neat or as a Ti Punch, at an unbeatable value for money."

"This is a cuvée distilled at Longueteau in 2022 using red cane from their Parcelle n°1 and blue cane from Parcelle n°7. This cuvée honors the legendary Route du Rhum (a yacht race held every 4 years between Saint-Malo, in Brittany, and Point-à-pitre, in Guadeloupe). And for this, they've brought out a beautiful bluish bottle (although I confess that the large neckline makes serving it a little complicated). The reduction was particularly slow (8 months) and fractioned to obtain this juice bottled at 57.5%. Limited edition of some 17,400 bottles (so it's easy to find). The nose is of fresh sugar cane, with honeyed and slightly peppery notes. A straightforward nose that attracts interest. The attack on the palate is well-balanced (you'd think it was even more reduced than 57.5%), with a very vegetal mouthfeel, and sugarcane in the spotlight! The peppery, fruity citrus note is very pleasant indeed. The length is quite persistent, and even surprising on the peppery side! It's an enjoyable tasting experience, accompanied by perfect sweetness. The glass empties too quickly, and even more so with Ti-Punch! A masterful rum. As is often the case, Longueteau's whites never disappoint! And no hesitation, I doubled it ..."

"For agricole lovers, one of the best I ever tasted. Great perfume of cane and a powerful taste of grass/lemongrass/cane. We don't feel the high alcoholic degree, it slides easily. Excellent 👌 Les amis, petite mise à jour après avoir fini la bouteille et en français pour mieux retranscrire les émotions...Ce rhum est une dinguerie! Si vous aimez les rhums agricoles blancs des Antilles vous devez acheter celui ci, il est délicieusement parfumé et le taux d'alcool élevé ne se ressent absolument pas. Je confirme mon commentaire: meilleur agricole jamais goûté 🙏"
