"On the nose, lots of plum and pleasant Christmas associations - concentrated and dark. Then dangerously quaffable and smooth on the palate. The sweetness seems a bit on the nose - almost like a shot of prune juice. Perfect as a relaxed, liquid dessert, though."
"Un rhum goûté dans un restaurant, dernier verre de la bouteille. Le nez est très « corde de chanvre », vieille grange et raisins secs, les marqueurs de la Favorite. Un côté herbacé, des pruneaux et du cognac. La bouche est douce (trop?) avec des agrumes et toujours la vieille corde de chanvre et les raisins secs. La finale est longue, presque collante, sur le végétal et les agrumes. Le verre vide est très proche du premier nez. Un rhum ample mais avec pourtant de la tension malgré l’impression de sucrosité."
"Overall an Agricole that’s not giving me an impression of an AOC Agricole, but it’s an excellent rum. I believe most people should have problems to categorize it as an Agricole in a blind taste. Got a sample of this very special Agricole from RumX, produced by La Favorite in Martinique. The nose is fruity, woody, sweet and a little smoky with aromas of prunes, caramel, vanilla and chocolate. At the palate it’s super smooth and round with the aromas coming back as tastes together with licorice. The finish is between medium and long and also super smooth and round."
"This is a very nice La Favorite. And as usual they just deliver. The nose is fruity and sweet with spices and some barrel in the back. The palate is sweet and balanced with a lot of fruit and some caramel and vanilla. The rum makes nice curtains in the glass. The finish is long and lightly sweet with barrel, vanilla and a hint of licorice. "
