    RumX members praise this VO for balance and value. From Martinique’s Baie des Trésors, it opens with fresh sugarcane before vanilla, wood and dried-fruit flavors take the lead, spiked with allspice. The 52% is well integrated, with a long, drying finish and occasional light smoke. Often described as more mature than expected, this popular pick (57 community reviews) earns recommendations for quality at its price.

    #4590 26-27.01.2024 Hanse Spirit Thinking about the price tag you get a lot for your money with this release. A fruity yet well balanced rum. Nose Fresh, wood, light smoke, fruits, spice, floral, sugarcane, light earthy notes. Palate Wood, light smoke, fruits, floral, spice, light herbs and earthy notes. Finish Medium long, wood, dried fruit, light mint.

    8:On the nose , the first impression is fresh, elegant and complex. A pinch of pepper with the fresh cane juice, fruity with red fruits, indeed a very nice agricole, soon tinged with a tasty woodiness and some medicinal, roasted notes. With aeration, the woody entrusts only what is necessary to the cane, pairing in nice choreography, the rum becomes more roasted, caramelized, with burnt sugar, nutty, there are dried fruits and bourbon touch, grassy with some smoky resinous whiffs. 8,2:On the palate, it is a complex and tasty agricole. The sugar cane is juicy, soft, waxy, woody, with menthol, citrus and red, candied fruits, is resinous, with a hint of roasting and pleasant spiciness. We can notice some iodine later on, banana after well rested. 8:The finish is very, by the book, rhum agricole, fresh with candied lime peel, minty, pepper, woody, a bit dry, but very pleasant and round...

    Great Agricole with a fine sweetness that seems much older than it actually is. Gets better and better with increasing time in the glass.

    For a VO, this rum has a lot to offer. On the nose, the watts are higher than on other classic vintages, with an assertive agricultural side to spices, oak and more vegetal notes. Sugar cane, coconut, banana and hazelnut bring balance to the olfactory force present. The result is full-bodied, contrasting yet highly expressive. The attack on the palate is driven by spices (vanilla, pepper, nutmeg) that pave the way for wood, tobacco and dried fruit. The earthiness and herbaceousness of agricultural rums is fairly discreet, and works well with the sugarcane and citrus notes. On the palate, a slight smokiness gently emerges. The alcohol is well integrated into this dry, intense profile. The long, drying finish returns to woody, spicy, tobacco and smoky notes. Dried fruit and sugarcane are not left out either. A very pleasant rum with excellent value for money. A brand to keep a close eye on for years to come.
