 Wow, a stroke of luck. Old bottle, cork in the rum, everything looked like a mistake. But I was able to filter the rum and the taste is spot on. Certainly on a par with the 18 brothers of these legendary 80s Damoiseaus. Again balanced, earthy, floral.

 Damoiseau’s best? It’s a pity that there’s so very few left out there. Nice nose, super smooth and an elegant and subtle medium long finish.

 Tasting-Abend bei Dr. Django: Das ist schon ein besonderer Agricole… Damoiseau aus den 80er. Schwer, dunkel und würzig kommt er daher, von der Nase bis zum Abgang ein recht intensiver Rum. Alkohol ist nicht wahrnehmbar.. Vielen Dank an Leo, den mal im Glas haben zu können

 Talking about being extremely Woody but not getting into the wood soup mess. This carries a lot of flavors like vanilla Oak and chocolate and manages to really battle itself with geranium and other floral notes to become a very herbal sweet vibrant and complex finish
