How does this rum taste?

With predominant vegetal, peppery, and woody notes, this 42% ABV rum is aged for three years from sugarcane juice using a column still. It reveals fruity and vanilla aromas, providing a grassy and herbal complexity. Users describe the rum as a decent mixer with an earthy undertone and a touch of pepper. Impressions range from enjoying its distinctive agricole nature to noting its middling complexity and short finish.

The 3yo from Montebello is a blend of 70% 3yo rhum, 20% 8yo rhum and 10% of 12yo rhum which gives an average age of 5 years. It’s actually the only aged Montebello rhum that is a blend. All the others are vintages. As a summary I think they have made a great job to create this blend.
Very neutral mid-range agricole that is not bad but is not standing out of the crowd of agricole rhums. It feels more like a mixer type of the agricole rhum than a sipper. I cannot find one specific note that stands out and differentiates this rhum from others. Maybe a peppery intro and bitterness in the finish.
Hezká kombinace ovocnosti a agricole vůně, vanilka, propsaný sud. Chuť se špatně popisuje, ale zase je to kombinace agrárníka s ovocem, kořením, propsaným sudem, muškátový oříšek. Závěr v podobném duchu. Za mě velmi povedené.
Hnus, pálenka..
