How does this rum taste?
Most enjoy its evolving floral–fruity nose, gentle wood and bourbon‑like notes. Critics find it a bit young, diluted and with a short finish. Consensus: elegant, interesting, not mind‑blowing.
If you like mild, bourbon‑leaning or Agricole‑adjacent profiles, this is a cool crossover: floral nose, gentle wood and smoke, but at easy 45% so you can sip without fatigue.
Those chasing big intensity, long finishes, very sweet rums, or absolute beginners who may find the changing, vegetal-woody profile a bit confusing.

For Guadeloupe completely unusual first very floral then fruity notes, different from what is usually known from Agricole. Marzipan and cookies next to the fruity notes.
