Damoiseau Rhum Vieux Agricole

 This is not a bad rum. The scents are great, but the flavors didn’t match the scents nor my expectations. It’s distilled at the Bellevue distillery in Guadeloupe and was aged in ex-bourbon barrels before bottled in 2022 after reduction to 42%. The nose is full bodied, warm, fruity, spicy and woody with scents of nutmeg, caramel and coffee. At the palate it’s smooth, spicy, fruity and woody with flavors of vanilla and cinnamon. The finish is rather short with spicy notes.

 Aucun intérêt. Pour un 15 ans décevant.

 A nice nose, woody but yet elegant, it's completely lacking of complexity when sipped. A bit disappointing when comparing with other single vintage, but I think it's a matter of low ABV, would be nice to know what would have been at an higher proof

 So empty

 Another agricole rhum and another very nice experience. Aroma is very elegant, pleasant, little bit sweet (brown sugar mostly maybe caramel), fruity and I noticed that “agricole” scent of some herbs with quite a lot of barrel/wood scents. Taste was different, and I have to say I missed something in it. I noticed mostly floral taste which was elegant with combination of some spice, wood and brown sugar. Finish for me is lomg enough pretty warmy and pleasant. Very nice sample but as I mentioned I missing something in taste. Maybe more ABV could helped this rhum, maxbe hint of some fruity/juicy flavor. If you have chance to taste it, give it a chance you will not be dissapointed.

 Manque de complexité, faible degrés d’alcool. Tout de même agréable à boire.
