We tried this one before starting our S.B.S tasting yesterday (will put it up later) and it was a really nice surprise. Fresh from nose to finish with a warm and dry touch to the palate. The fun thing was as it was standing on the tabel the dryness kind of dropped and turned into a more round profile. Nice citrus notes and I like the minty touch on the palate. I'd say this could be a good rum for a beginners entrance into the Agricole world. Price to quality is very good and it was chosen as the rum of the year 2022 by romhatten.dk 😊
Agricole blanc is just not my thing. It did have some interesting notes though.
The problem here is that I really enjoy the odd. This is not a rhum I'd serve for anyone that hadn't passed a few lesser difficult rhum in my cabinet. The nose and taste is difficult to explain and many would probably find both disgusting. I've tasted more vomitus in other rums, both there's a hint of it here. Rare, extraordinary, and very interesting.
For RRP (35euro) it is definitely not a bad buy. The nose has hints of candy(?) and grassy notes. For 50% it burns very little, but it does have some ethanol smell and taste. I don't recommend buying it as a dram bottle, but if you want something more interesting than bacardi and havana club for your drinks (that require white rum), this will be a great choice.
