    I like even better than the already extremely good 2018 bottling. Is more complex with a very nice fruity berry note. Otherwise also green and grassy with lots of sugar cane and pronounced ester notes. One of the best white rums!

    Very nice, fruity clairin with a good punch on the palate.

    what a great Agricole blanc! Almost too good to blend. On the nose incredibly complex, pear, olive, red fruit, spice. On the palate, honeydew melon comes to mind, with an intense sweetness, along with freshly cut grass. The finish brings green vegetables to which some earth still clings 😉.

    Yes man, also a great rum from @SaibotZtar. Honestly mega tasty. Alcohol is super integrated, you can hardly feel it. Otherwise slightly fruity, mineral and yet very intense. But really delicious. Recommendation goes out:-)
