    How does this rum taste?

    L'Experience 69, produced at the Damoiseau distillery in Guadeloupe, is a high-proof, unaged agricole rum distilled from sugarcane juice. It offers a bold, vegetal aroma with notes of sugarcane and a pronounced alcoholic scent due to its 69% ABV. On the palate, this rum features a strong sugarcane taste with vegetal, grassy, and nutty undertones. While some users find the high alcohol content overwhelming, others appreciate its fresh, complex flavor profile. Best suited for aficionados seeking robust flavors, it may benefit from aeration to soften the alcohol edges.

    #5138 21.02.2025 Battle of the white evening. Nose Fresh, medium intense, sugarcane, light citrus, light vegetal, light nutts light mineral. Palate Oily, fresh, round, medium intense, light citrus, light spice, light grass, light nutts, faint pineapple, sugarcane. Finish Medium to long, oily, light grass, nutts, light citrus, sugarcane. Empty glass Sugarcane, spice, light herbal, faint floral, light citrus. Needs to rest for a good while for the ABV to settle properly and all the flavours to be released.

    La Route des Rhums Adventdkalender 2023 No. 21. Hier jetzt ein weißer Agricole von Damoiseau. Typisch Agricole, hat eine fruchtig, florale und frische Nase. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls, nur finde ich die 69% sind etwas zuviel, er kommt zu alkoholisch rüber.

    The perception of alcohol harms the drinking experience. Very similar to other ~70° rums in terms of nose and drinking experience, yet the alcohol spoils the experience

    Décidément Damoiseau et moi ne sommes pas copains... Seule bouteille de Damoiseau dans ma grande collection, je me suis laissé tenté par le "genre brut de colonne", mais le résultat n'y est pas. Xperience 69, à garder pour les jeux érotiques? même pas trop... + Sérieusement, beaucoup trop alcoolique dès le départ au nez, il faut le laisser s'oxygéner bien 5-10 min pour qu'il devienne plus attrayant. Goûté sur ma bouteille puis, après près d'une année, en aveugle dans l'avent 2023: bof... Le nez est assez absent à part en enols. La bouche se rattrape avec une bonne sucrosité et une texture un peu grasse. Ça chauffe de façon sympathique, mais l'amertume finale est moins agréable. Ces désagréments sont moins présents sur un verre longuement reposé.. Les fruits rouges peuvent se retrouver mais trop discrets pour rattraper.
