How does this rum taste?

  • Intense nose for its age
  • Surprising barrel nuances
  • Good quality-price ratio

The FRC Martinique, a limited release with only 200 bottles, is distilled from sugar cane juice using a column still and aged for four years in Martinique. Bottled by Oldman Spirits GmbH, this rum boasts an impressive 58% ABV. Tasting notes reveal a rich tapestry of citrus, apple, and vegetal aromas, with complex flavors of barrel, tobacco, and spice. While some users admire its intense nose and surprising depth for a young rum, others find the alcohol integration somewhat lacking. Suitable for both beginners and enthusiasts, this agricole-style rum presents a distinct character that challenges typical Martinique profiles, including notes of often earthy and fruity undertones.

"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)."

"Young, fresh, Agricole. Nose: clearly Agricole. Spicy, woody, fruity. Young wood, almost a little green, plus intense lime, green apple and tart-sweet gooseberry, kiwi and redcurrant. A fine vinegar note is added here. Young and unripe, but pleasant. 7,4 Palate: spicy, woody, nutty, fruity, young. Pleasantly malty, with the sweetness of tonka bean and liquorice. Sweet cherry wood and mace with walnut. Also herbs, camomile, hay and grass. Most fruit is blackcurrant and prune. There is also a fine eucalyptus note and my typical soapiness. Very pleasant without being complicated. 7,8"

"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!"
