A bottle opened for the occasion. A closet nose with dust and old cellar notes. Very little on the nose, but there's vegetal and some fruit. The palate is much better, with tropical fruit and vegetal notes. A long, beautiful finish with bitters and fruit, and a lingering impression of old hemp rope. There's a huge difference between a very discreet nose and a fine, full-bodied palate and, above all, a fine finish.
Very gentle well aged agricole rhum. Not too grassy. Some hay. Woodspice well integrated. Provincial herbs. Honeycomb. Freshness. Light. Dry. Astringent. Balanced, easy but not too easy. Taste def older than its age.
26.03.2021 Sitting at home enjoying some new samples I got. Notes Medium dark in colour. Nose Wood, light roasted, vegetal, light sugarcane, light citrus, faint cherry. Palate Intense, spicy, wood, dried fruit, balanced, sugarcane, light olive, faint floral. Finish Long and warm, fruits, spice, oily, wood, light spicy. Extra note. Need to rest to fully release its flavours, especially the wood shines through after resting.
Auch ein guter Rum, nur finde etwas überteuert. Nase etwas schwierig, aber für mich hiergetrocknete Früchte und sehr pflanzlich. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls getrocknete und auch tropische Früchte, sowie ebenfalls pflanzlich und erdig.
