“This one can play with the 1989 that I also have. Overall another great rum from this destillery. The nose is fruity with vanilla and coffee in the front and caramel, barrel a bit of tar in the back. The palate is complex and well balanced with fruits and spices. There is a wonderful smoky oak feel to it. In the back i get chocolate and nuts. The finish is long and fruity with coffee and smoked oak.”

“Delicious Damoiseau with a classic profile. Aromatically expressive with wood, spices, the classic dark red fruit notes (cherry) and slight hints of cola. Not the absolute top release from Damoiseau, but very tasty.”

“Révision de mon avis après degustation à l'aveugle. Le nez est sombre, torréfié, chocolat, agrumes confits. Mais l'alcool brûle les narines. En bouche il y a un coté goudron, ou alors une grosse amertume du bois. L'alcool est vraiment piquant pour moi. La finale me laisse un arrière gout pas très agréable. Verdict final, je remonte la note par rapport à ma découverte (j'avais vraiment moins aimé) mais cela reste un rhum dont je ne suis pas un grand fan.”

“A powerful and intense rum, which develops toasted and smoky notes from the first moments, with notes of banana, dried fruits and tobacco in the background. The attack is strong in the mouth, with spicy, spicy and smoky notes, but also the presence of figs, cherry and raisins give a sweetness to this rum with a dark profile. The finish is long and warm on the same frame. A very good vintage combining power and sweetness of aromas with a nice balance throughout the tasting.”

“surprisingly 'Caroni-esque' for an Agricole. On the nose nutmeg, dried fruit, thyme, caramel, and tar. On the palate, lots of smoked barrel, mocha, and rubber. The 66.9% ABV comes across as pretty biting, which also diminishes the finish somewhat. Overall good, but not top either, and a fair bit removed from the outstanding 80 Velier.”

“Lacks some reduction on this 95, at least for me. Quite a bit of tropical fruit, but the alcohol makes this a perilous tasting, though it's still a nice rum.”

“Nice spicy and woody nose with dried apricot, even something towards dried date. There is also briefly a slight hint of milk chocolate. I still find sour cherry and something nutty towards chestnuts. A tart sweetness as of maple syrup. Vanilla and nutmeg.Wonderful on the palate. Spicy and almost floral fruity. Clearly the sugar cane, but also cherry and fig. Nutty in the direction of walnut. Caramel I got and vanilla and nutmeg. Totally well integrated alcohol.In the finish the sweet-woody sugar cane.This rum is really great.”

“Le profil ressemble au 1980 avec le côté très empyreumatique (cuir,fumé voir goudron leger), sucre caramélisé et cerise. Ça reste un de mes rhums préféré”

“wow! very many sour cherries and dark chocolate with banana bread with a little mint on the nose. Taste then directly sour cherries with mint and dark cocoa. plus some fig, roasted nuts, barrel and vanilla. surprisingly little wood for the age.in the finish then a little more towards leather and barrel, dry with intense mocha, and sweet mango and cinnamon notes. at the very end the mint and the cherry again celebrates its comeback.... very very tasty and harmonious! unfortunately horny!”

“Klassisches Damoiseau-Profil mit einer phantastischen Mischung aus fruchtigen Noten (Traube und Kirschen) und schönem Holz-Einfluss. Außerdem dieser unbeschreibliche Mischung aus Agricole und Melasse. Ich stehe voll auf dieses Profil!”
