How does this rum taste?
RumX members love its classic agricole profile and deep oak-spice balance, remarkably smooth for 58.1% cask strength. Cedar, leather and cacao lead the nose; the palate is dry, woody and leathery with licorice and dark chocolate, finishing minty with tobacco-like tannins. Frequently praised in blind tastings, this 17‑year Martinique release is a popular community pick with 82 reviews—confidently chosen for unhurried sipping.

I love Bally and have a lot of them on my shelves. This particular one is just up there with the best. A very floral release compared to the other releases from Bally. We'll rounded and fruity with spices and chocolate as well as a hint of coffee. Price to quality at release was really good 😊
Al naso è corposo e speziato con legno, pelle, frutti rossi, vaniglia, caffè tostato e qualche vegetale, buonissimo! Al palato avvolgente e speziato, tostato con pelle, legno, vegetali, floreale, pepato, vaniglia e frutti secchi misti. Nel retrogusto resta terroso. Grazie a Dr.Django per l'occasione.
Great rums. Finally back in the glass after years. Incredibly round and palatable. Exactly what you want from old agricoles.
