    How does this rum taste?

    The FRC Martinique Rum, distilled in 2018 and bottled by Oldman Spirits GmbH, presents itself with intriguing complexity given its 4-year maturation. Limited to just 200 bottles, its nose boasts dominant citrus, milk chocolate, and vegetal notes, while the palate hints at spice, tobacco, and black tea. Made from sugar cane juice using a column still, this 58% ABV rum has been praised for its surprising depth and tropical influence. Although some find it slightly harsh and unrefined, most appreciate the potent combination of fruity and woody flavors typical of Agricole rums. Perfect for aficionados seeking a robust, young tropical rum experience, it's a valuable addition for those exploring Martinique's rum craftsmanship.

    Wow, quite extraordinary for a 4-ender! Seems much older than it is, has really nice, woody depth. Alcohol could be a little better integrated, but for this quality excellent PLV. Successful label (even if that is for the smell / taste heartily indifferent).

    Beautiful Martinique rum! With its 58% He delivers decent taste, although the alcohol could be a little better integrated. But that is for four years already quite neat. Blind I would have him by the nose not at all prescribed in Martinique, the mixture of fruity notes and something sweet-caramel is not so typical for me. On the palate then but more herbal-earthy, overall very tasty as I find!

    Very good value for money, no bad surprises. The taste and the watts are there.

    Wow, eine erstaunlich intensive Nase für das junge Alter,gefällt mir sehr gut. Auch der Gaumen erstaunt mich, die Intensität des Fasses nach der kurzen Zeit. Hätte ich mir mal ne Flasche zulegen sollen,jetzt isses bestimmt zu spät.
