A true gem for rum aficionados, this release offers the robustness expected from a quality agricole rum, appealing to those seeking complexity in their spirits without the hefty aging of older iterations.

    Très bon j.m full proof

    Wl 24 - Really good JM

    WL 2024 Belle sélection à prix lmdw, pas suffisant pour que ça s'envole des rayons. Probablement soldé à son juste prix l'année prochaine!

    Un JM au profil jeune mais aguerri, qui s’exprime au nez à travers divers fruits jaunes exotiques, secs (raisin) et confits. On décèle une canne gourmande et gorgée de sucre, ainsi que des épices (piment, poivre, muscade, vanille) étalées sur un boisé plutôt noble. Le profil olfactif est plutôt rond et aérien, lui octroyant de la légèreté aux narines. L’attaque en bouche est plus sèche, plus végétale avec des notes d’herbes aromatiques. Les agrumes, notamment l’orange, prennent le relais sur la partie fruitée, tandis que les épices et le bois conservent leur panache. Le profil est équilibré sur le plan aromatique et l’alcool est très bien intégré au profil. La finale, de longueur correcte, demeure tout aussi sèche mais riche en arômes. On oscille entre les épices, le côté agricole et végétale mais aussi les fruits (orange, fruits secs et tropicaux) et une touche de sel qui apporte pas mal d’élégance en fin de bouche. Un JM solide, agréable et qui ravira les amateurs de rhums agricoles plus intenses qu’à l’accoutumée.
