Terroir Volcanique

Here the typical agricole aroma already stands out. Only strong for me so that I don't mind it on the contrary. Very nice perfume. Flavour-wise, it's a fruity and again typical agricole. In the finish the agricole flavour leads with nuts. Again, it's only 3 years old like the N.Grove I had a while ago, but it's a completely different rum. I must be in an agricole mood, but I can't help it. This sat nicely with me too. If it was over 50%, it could be a blast. Edit: rounding up slightly, a very good piece

Rancid taste...

Nose: light, sweet and fruity. Canned pineapple with a fine sticky note like bourbons. Palate: Pineapple and honey sweetness up front. Then becomes spicier and intensely fruity. Finish: unfortunately short, but sweet and fruity. Conclusion: dangerously drinkable and very good PLV.

Sample no.13 of the 24 days of rum calendar 2022. Fruity, oak barrels and agricole on the nose. Maybe some sweet fruit like apple maybe? Palate is fruity and vegetal, dry and tastes faint of white wine. Agricole is an aquired taste, so far I’ve not fallen for it but this one tastes better than others I’ve tried.

Une très belle entrée dans le monde du rhum martiniquais avec ce rhum bon marché, mais pourtant d'une complexité folle et d'un superbe équilibre. Le rapport qualité-prix est dingue. Le nez nous accueille avec beaucoup de fruits secs et de vanille, mais surtout cet ADN de la Martinique. Les épices poivrées apportent un bon élan au chêne un peu brûlé. Les arômes empyreumatiques de ce chêne passé à la flamme ramènent des notes de vieux cuir. La bouche est très évolutive. On passe d'une attaque fruitée sur des fruits exotiques secs, à de la vanille, du caramel, puis doucement vers du pain toasté. On perçoit aussi quelques accents de coco, de poivre et de canne à sucre. Je trouve que ce rhum a plus de choses à raconter qu'un Neisson beaucoup plus cher.

Non refined nosing, unpleasant finish, not my taste

Excellent quality/price ratio.very long, fruity finish. The bottle and design are superb, and would make an excellent gift.a little young of course, but at 30euros it's more than worth the triple-priced XO agricoles!

Bought this bottle from Wine Palace in Spain and have emptied in Nerja at Costa del Sol. It’s a blend of rum aged for at least 3 years in American oak barrels toasted in two different levels. The nose is sweet, fruity, spicy, woody and floral with scents of honey, prunes, vanilla, oak and leather. At the palate it’s elegant, round, vegetal, fruity, spicy and woody with flavors of grass, passion fruit, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and oak. The finish is medium long, woody and spicy with flavors of leather, cinnamon and nutmeg.

It's decent a very good rum for sipping

Surprisingly complex and harmonious for this price range. Fruity, herbal and sweetish tones, which inspire the nose, are enhanced in the mouth by honey, oak and dried fruit. Spice and herbs are present and remain well in the background over the medium-long finish. A very accessible Agricole with unbeatable value for money.

#4428 Whisky & Rom Festival 2023 28.10.2023 Notes. Fresh and fruity with roasted wood. There is also light clove and coffee in the profile.

Definitely getting a lava flow vibe here. Smoky and some caramel. Light golden pour. A hint of lemon. Pretty fun. Tasted on a flight at Casta's in DC.

Very vanilla and woody, quite pleasant. Not a great rum but nice to drink as an aperitif!

upon first tasting, i was perplexed, as it smelled and tasted more similar to bourbon than rum, let alone cane juice rum. however, upon my second tasting, everything opened up. the fruity richness paired with wood smoke and spices, all rounded by this delicate cane sweetness, nuttiness, and buttery decadence. at 43% abv, it provides a surprisingly long finish that pricks at the tongue before opening into an array of bright tropics.
