Rhum J.M Fumée Volcanique

"8,1:On the nose, rum reveals notes of smoke/volcanique scents and roasting that remain quite subtle and allow the agricultural rum to stand out. The ripe cane is present as well as dried fruits, raisins. The whole is simply laid down on a well roasted woody note. A pretty jam of various yellow fruits, citrus, starts to stick to our nostrils, before the apricot takes the lead. 8,1,:On the palate palate, it is fresh and fluid on the attack, with a nice ray of sunshine from the cane juice, mineral, syrupy with yellowfruits.Then, the spices with vanilla, pepper and wood with a touch of resin, quickly take over the palate, stinging it with fiery clouds that then rise up in smoke. You can actually taste a vulcano! The pepper takes advantage of this to spread its flavours in all dimensions, until it intoxicates us with its intensity. 8:The finish is quite light, dry, spicy, but long, compared to the lively mid-palate, raspberry is the leading fruit. This rum is a great example of real smoky rums, not just by name, it is not ment just for cocktails, but also for enjoying it neat-sipping.."

"A wood-aged rum for cocktails. The barrels in which this cuvée rests have been tampered with, immediately bringing out the empyreumatic notes on the nose. The smokiness, even burnt, of the barrels comes through, as do marshmallow, caramel and toasted almonds. Spices combine with empyreumatic notes to mark a relatively youthful profile. Tropical fruits, including coconut, take pride of place in this promisingly aromatic nose. On the palate, smoky, spicy notes dominate without moderation. Burnt sweetness, vanilla, nuts and a touch of alcohol (Armagnac) make up the bulk of the profile. Fruit is much more in the background. A more concentrated, simplistic profile on the palate. The rather brief finish blends woody, spicy and empyreumatic notes with more grassy and agricultural ones. A certain bitterness emanates on the finish. If the nose announced something innovative, the rest of the profile remains more summary and limited by the low degree and rather succinct aging. A more mature cuvée with this type of profile might be interesting. Nevertheless, this remains a good rum, particularly for bars and cocktails, to which it will add character."

"Very classic delicate Agricole in the nose. Subtle oak. Olive. Chamomille. Lemon. All good so far. The taste does not surprise me either. All those flavours come back fair and square. Very dry. Very drinkable. And a very well priced quality agricole. Nothing "fumee/smoky" btw. Must be a reference to the volcanic soil only. Retaste: light and fresh and minerally. Still good."

"#4432 Whisky & Rom Festival 2023 28.10.2023 Notes. Very different J.M profile with some fruit and a smoky note. Dry with some peat notes after resting for a while. Price to quality is very good."

"Crossover aus Rum Agricole und mildem rauchigen Whisky."

"A l'odeur, du fruit d'abord, du bois ensuite. Un peu pareil côté palais : beaucoup d'alcool, du bois et des fruits mais je cherche encore le côté fumé. Il gagne en finesse a l'aération et se révèle beaucoup plus agréable après quelques minutes à température ambiante."

"Man Man Man hat der Power. Sehr würzig in der Nase, witzigerweise habe ich hier viel Melassearoma erfahren. Im Geschmack ein Kampf der Titanen Würze, Holz und agricole Frische. Recht langer Abgang, aus der reihe der längste. Geschmacklich für mich aber etwas chaotisch - dementsprechend aber sehr treu dem Namen!"

"Amber color with rich and quite complex olfactory picture.Aroma of sugarcane,caramel,citrus and quite spicy.On the sip it has persistent aromas and quite long finish.Honestly, I was not very enthusiastic about it."

"Worth the price."

"Al naso dolcezza carbonizzata condita di nocciole. Al palato molto vegetale carbonizzato condito da una dolcezza nocciolosa e vegetale. Finale persistente e deciso. Nel bicchiere vuoto dolcezza carbonizzata"

"could have a little more bang and seems a bit watery oddly enough despite 49% but aromatically it is very exciting and nicely complex 🔥"

"Ein sehr fruchtiger Geruch, süßlich, etwas rauchig und brennend alkoholisch. Auch der Geschmack ist leicht süßlich und fruchtig, etwas alkoholisch und holzig. Ein guter Rhum mit Whiskyeinschlag. "

"Milder Agricole mit einer zurückhaltenden Rauchigkeit, die ich eher als Würze bezeichnen würde. Alles sehr ausgewogen, die 49 % kann ich nicht ausmachen. Guter Trinkrum, dem Tiefe und Nachklang fehlt."

"Like an agricole took a year off in Scotöand. Very easy to drink and not a lot of classic Agricole. But nice."

"Аромат: очень яркий аромат тростника с копчёным нотами, аромат лимонада, перечные дымные ноты, очень яркие травяные ноты которые очень напоминают текилу. Вкус: сладкий, травяной копчённый вкус, полностью продолжающий нос. Среднее травяной послевкусие с горечью. Да, такого рома я ещё не пил. Обожённые бочки определённого дают аромат и вкус. А с учётом того что это ром один из 3х в коктельной линейке, то это очень интересно. Вот такой наверное должен быть Мексиканский ром, т.к. вслепую я бы точно сказал что это выжержанная в бочке текила. Только сладость с горечью на послевкусии выдаёт основу сахарного тростника. Но именно как ром мне такое не зашло совсем. Aroma: very bright reed aroma with smoked notes, lemonade aroma, peppery smoky notes, very bright herbal notes that are very reminiscent of tequila. Taste: sweet, herbal smoked taste, completely extending the nose. Medium herbal aftertaste with bitterness. Yes, I haven't drunk such rum yet. Burnt barrels of a certain give aroma and taste. And considering that this rum is one of the 3 in the cocktail line, it is very interesting. That's probably what Mexican rum should be, because blindly I would definitely say that it is aged in a barrel of tequila. Only sweetness with bitterness on the aftertaste gives out the basis of sugar cane. But it was as a rum that I did not go at all."
