"This rhum replaced the 5yo VSOP Reserve du Comte Arthur Dillon when Dillon changed their range, at least by name. Could be the same rhum in a new bottle, even if I don’t think so. It’s quite smooth on the palate and during the medium long finish, for a 4yo AOC Rhum."
"Ein ganz okayer Rum nichts besonderes, aber auch nicht schlecht. Die Nase fast ausschliesslich holzig, geht Richtung Eiche, aber auch eine kleine Kaffeenote ist zu erkennen. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls überwiegend Holz und Fass und etwas Kaffee."
"A good example to get in touch with Agricole Rum."
"Basic farming. Woody. Vanilla sensation. Not bad. But nothing special either."
