    How does this rum taste?

    The "Original Rum" from Labourdonnais Distillery in Mauritius is a 50% ABV rum distilled from sugarcane juice using a column still. Known for its agricultural style, it's appreciated for its aromatic sugarcane, fermented, and slightly sour scent. The palate introduces grass, sugar, and dried apricot flavors, with a noticeable alcoholic punch. While some users find it vibrant and suitable for cocktails, others comment on its sour and medicinal undertones. It's viewed as a well-balanced, powerful option for rum enthusiasts seeking an unaged, pure Agricole experience. Perfect for adventurous palates or as a defining component in Mojitos, opinions vary from admiration for its freshness to critiques of its bold flavor profile.

    Quite acidic, musty and unfortunately not my cup of tea. There's clearly better rums from Mauritius ... Probably the worst I had so far from Mauritius in the glass. Too bad

    Ein sehr fruchtiger Geruch, Zuckerrohr, Banane, etwas vergoren, leicht floral und schwach alkoholisch. Der Geschmack ist ebenfalls kräftig nach Zuckerrohr, fruchtig, die 50 Prozent Alkohol sind etwas mehr bemerkbar. Ein wirklich gut ausbalancierter ungereifter Agricole.

    Mit Coke OK. Aber Pur geht es meinen Lippen nicht runter..

    Sehr guten weißen Rum, kann nur weiter empfehlen!
