How does this rum taste?
- Great Agricole but the herbal / grassy notes are only minimal.
- Alkohol ist gut eingebunden.
- fruity yet well balanced rum
This Baie des Trésors VO - Karakoli 2019 draws RumX members in with a punchy sugarcane and vanilla nose, plenty of woody warmth, and a twist of dried fruit and allspice. Folks keep coming back to that balanced palate—"angenehmen Zuckerrohr- und Vanillegeruch" (@Timo Groeger), with a finish that is "longue et asséchante" (@TheRhumhoe) and just enough spice. The alcohol blends in well, letting a mellow sweetness, some fruit, and gentle herbal notes shine through all three stages. Not everyone finds it complex, but few deny its pleasing approach to classic agricole flavors.

"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."
