How does this rum taste?
The XO Cuvée Prestige rum from Depaz, Martinique, offers a complex and aromatic profile. Distilled from sugar cane juice and aged for 11 years in oak barrels, this rum exhibits a woody, vanilla, and licorice aroma with hints of tropical fruits and spices. Featuring a mature, well-balanced flavor with woody and spicy notes, it combines vegetal hints and a peppery finish. Though well-crafted with a smooth, warm finish, some users find it not significantly better than other Depaz XOs and question its premium pricing. Ideal for those seeking a rich agricole experience.

As a summary this is a very smooth and truly an magnificent Agricole. I suppose it’s Depaz best standard Rhum, aged for at least during 9 years in small oak barrels. I think there are some similarities with the old bottle of Grande Reserve XO which was aged at least 12 years. It’s very complex and it’s hard to sort out the aromas and tastes.
A deliciously complex Depaz with a warm and long-lasting finish.
Très belle richesse et intensité aromatique avec un équilibre nez/bouche. Les arômes au nez se retrouvent en bouche et la finale est longue. Nous sommes en présence d’un rhum vieux de grande qualité, très agréable à déguster.
Un Depaz XO avec une carafe très esthétique, ce qui n’est pas sans laisser dubitatif. Le nez pour le coup est généreux avec de belles notes fruitées (fruits exotiques, secs et agrumes) des arômes de fleur (rose) et des belles notes épicées (réglisse, vanille) et rôties (toast grillé, noix). L’attaque en bouche est un peu plus vive, avec ses notes végétales plus marquées (canne à sucre, châtaignes), des tannins qui imprègnent le boisé et quelques épices plus éparses. Les fruits sont plus distants en bouche. La finale, assez longue, s’éparpille entre les notes florales, végétales, terreuses, le retour des fruits (agrumes, notamment le zeste d’orange) les épices et les notes rôties et boisées. Un rhum qui montre qu’il peut y en avoir sous le capot, même avec 45% d’alcool. Toutefois, le « syndrome de la jolie carafe » survient au moment du prix. C’est un Depaz de qualité, mais la qualité peut s’obtenir pour un prix bien moindre que celui-ci.
