    Pretty good rum from Bally and you get what you pay for. The Agricole notes are there just in a light version. The nose is warm, fruity and woody with nutmeg, tobacco, leather and a hint of varnish. The palate is also fruity and woody with sugarcane, leather, tobacco and a hint of iodine and flowers. The finish is medium long with wood, spices and dried fruits.

    Belle couleur cuivrée. Mais tout est moyen, le nez comme en bouche, presque fade. Je ne suis pas fan du bouchon en liège blanchi et ciré, je trouve que cela imprègne l'alcool. Il a certes un parfum agréable, mais plus digne d'un VO. Décevant, pour un millésimé agricole. Il y a plus de longueur et de goût dans un JM terroir volcanique de 3 ans à 30euros ... La finale est très courte.

    Much sweeter and less smoky than the 2008. But still quite short finish unfortunately.

    Pleasant relaxed Agricole
