“Parallel tasting with Dame Jeanne #1, which I had already tasted and rated at the time with 88 points, this assessment remains the same. Dame Jeanne #2 is more mineral and less fruity on the nose and flatter on the palate than #1. The lower alcohol content is noticeable here. Especially against this background, I find the price, which has been significantly increased once again compared to #1, very questionable and cannot recommend buying a whole bottle - a nice sample will do. Update 2024-04-18: I must apologize. In this second tasting (which concludes the small tasting today), I like the rum enough. This time I taste a delicious mixture of heavy fruit bread and Werther's Echten. Simply delicious.”

“Let's take the time to taste this beautiful bottle. A fine, elegant agricole. With notes of orange mingling with a complex, greedy woodiness. The nose is really very pleasant. On the palate, it's more wood than candied fruit, particularly spicy. This is really a very good Martinique Agricole rum. The price is a little high, however, which is a pity.”

“Really nice with all the pieces, wood, vanilla and some fruits. In comparison with the first release I find the nose to be more complex and intense. But on the palate the lower abv (45 / 48,3%) is clearly a disadvantage. The vanilla is much more present and the spices aren’t. At moments it feels a little bit too diluted and ends a little bit and kind of boring. To cut a long story short, I prefer the first release a bit (8,9) and the second only comes in close (8,7) because of it’s opulent and more complex nose.”

“Insanely beautiful nose with extremely many fruity notes of fresh and candied fruits. Orange is very prominent, but also lots of stone fruit and tropical fruit. Also spices and a surprising freshness. More spices and less lush fruit on the palate. It's also really too thin for me ... there's a little less alcohol than in the first version. Still very good, but not as great as the nose”

“#4668 24.03.2024 Sitting at home relaxing well knowing that I'll be off next week 😊 Nose Fresh, balanced, wood, light roasted, orange, plum, spices. Palate Balanced, complex, wood, light roasted, spices, light orange, light caramel, light grass, prunes. Finish Medium to long, complex, wood, orange, faint caramel, light citrus. This is a very nice blend and I'm still hunting a bottle that isn't too expensive. The empty glass has light chocolate, faint tobacco and nutmeg.”

“La Dame Jeanne the 2nd and it doesn't really convince me. I still find the nose very good. A nice, ample fruitiness of cherry, apricot and other stone fruits... very pleasant. This gave me hope for an intense palate. Unfortunately, this expectation was not fulfilled. Unfortunately, it loses out very clearly here. The dilution did not do it any good. The fruit is almost non-existent, it spreads out softly and only a little caramel, barrel and light spice are noticeable. It lacks a certain complexity. The finish is also not particularly pronounced. After a while, the classic agricole aromas assert themselves.”

“Gentle nose with a nice balance of fruits, wood and a grassy freshness. Some light spices in the background. Creamy mouthfeel with grassy vegetal notes, less fruits and more spices. Clearly agricol. Not bad but a bit underwhelming. Could need some higher abv. Short-medium finish on the rather grassy/spicy side.”

“A very fine blend from JM, confirming release after release the quality and prestige of the house. The nose is very elegant and aromatic. Spices are dominant but not aggressive, with vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon and pepper. There are also roasted notes of wood and hazelnut. Fruits gain in intensity with aeration, taking over with citrus (orange), exotic fruits (pineapple, banana), yellow fruits (peach, apricot) and candied fruits. A little floral breeze grazes the nostrils too. A super profile that awakens the sense of smell. On the palate, aromatic finesse is the order of the day. Spices are abundant (cloves, pepper, nutmeg, cinnamon) but once again, very well controlled, without overwhelming the palate. Hazelnut, candied fruit and caramel add to the greediness. The fruit is radiant: peach, pineapple and orange put on a truly colorful show. While a slight lack of alcohol could be criticized, resulting in a slightly watery texture, the resulting rum is nonetheless of the highest quality. The finish is long, spicy, slightly vegetal and always accompanied by that fruity sweetness, that slightly sweet roundness and a slightly more bitter woodiness. The aftertaste is opulent and unctuous, uncomplicated and harmonious. A superb bottling that deserves all its praise.”

“For me, it seamlessly continues the quality of No. 1. Even more floral and fresh on the nose. Very carefully blended, typical J.M aromas, wonderfully matched. Fruity, a little herbal, little wood, just the right sweetness, warm finish.”

“Great nose, I find mirabelle plums, peach and pastry! After a little time in the glass, the pastry aromas come to the fore a little more. Bright yellow fruit on the palate, again pastry and some spice. Very round, balanced and complex. Really beautiful. The finish is then medium-long and the Agricole DNA is also evident here with light grassy notes. For me, a very good representative of mature Agricole, only the issue price is a little high in my opinion for what is on offer.”

“This is a really nice rum. The nose is fantastic, bursting with fruitiness, reminiscent of canned peaches, and the wood influence. It really makes you want to have taste and has a freshness and vibrancy to it. The palate is more subdued than the nose and the low abv makes this an easy supper, but it’s still quite nice. You immediately get the wood and vanilla and it is followed with some spice, citrus and stone fruit, all with some caramel sweetness. One could argue it’s a little flat but I think this is possibly the best easy drinking, smooth and suave sipper I have tried in the rum world. You could win over drinkers of fine cognac with this if they had a blindfold on.”

“Blend with 35% 22 and 21 year old rums On the nose, it's as beautiful as a perfume On the palate, it's good. I find a lot of the structure of the 2013 10-year-old with candied cooked fruits. Pineapple, orange and vanilla. Slight bitterness on the finish. It's a good rum, better than Dame Jeanne No. 1.”
