J. Bally Millésime 2005 43%

RX810 Good Rhum Agricole <100€
“Complex nose, simple but pleasant woody taste.”

The 2005 J. Bally Millésime from Martinique is a distinguished agricole rum, distilled from sugar cane juice using a column still. It carries a 43% ABV and is celebrated for its rich aromatic profile of vanilla, spice, and dried fruits, with cocoa and overripe nuances. Tasting notes reveal a roasted, cocoa, and prunes character, layered with subtle vanilla and woody hints. Despite its appealing nose, some reviewers note it as light-bodied and simple on the palate, with a predominant woody finish. While it’s critiqued for its lack of complexity, the rum’s well-balanced flavors are appreciated for their high quality relative to price.

“Un rhum agricole qui démarre avec un joli nez boisé, vanillé avec des notes de chocolat, d’épices et de fruits. En bouche, le boisé prend le dessus, rendant le jus très simple et pas aussi développé que le nez le laisse entendre. La finale se termine sur cette même note boisée un peu rôti. Un rhum sec et dilué qui pourrait gagner en complexité.”

“Ein sehr schöner Bally Mülleimer aus dem Jahre 2005. In der Nase für mich einfach nur holzig. Am Gaumen kommen dann noch leichte Noten von Vanille, Kakao, Leder und Toffee hinzu. Und außerdem ist er leicht würzig. Alles in allem sehr lecker.”
