“Dans la lignée de la gamme Genesis, ce Longueteau ambré fait preuve d’une puissance phénoménale. La chaleur de l’alcool et des épices laisse présager d’un nez puissant, auquel s’ajoute un jeune boisé, de l’herbe et de la canne à sucre, mais surtout une bonne corbeille de fruits allant de l’abricot sec à la prune en passant par le zeste d’orange et les fruits exotiques. Un profil aromatique et intense. L’attaque en bouche est virulente, avec la même force de frappe alcoolique. La muscade et la cannelle s’allient au citron vert et au pruneau pour une percée dans le profil qui se veut très sec. Canne à sucre et notes florales finalisent une attaque intense et bien ciselée. La finale est très longue et persistante sur les agrumes (citron vert, orange) et le boisé légèrement épicé, avant que les tanins et les notes végétales viennent apporter de l’astringence et de l’amertume en fin de bouche. Une belle interprétation du rhum qui est encore assez jeune pour avoir les notes de canne à sucre, mais aussi assez mature pour avoir début de notes de vieillissement en fût.”

“This one I'd expected to be kind of a bomb, but it surprised me with a sweet and fruity nose once rested. A very nice balance between the elements and of course the ABV will bite a little, but it's actually far less than you'd expect. Very good balance overall and I get a light nutty flavour in the empty glass.”

“on the nose quite clearly directly young wood, solvent, some apricot, pear, fig and baked apple but also somewhat alcoholic.Taste then unfortunately a little too woody for me personally although there are only 2y, very dry and spicy with notes of prune, fruit bread, red pepper and pear compote, in the finish dominate then clearly tannins and slightly bitter barrel notes but also something sweet vanilla pear compote with cinnamon, which rounds him off again something.overall an exciting full proof Agricole, but the unripe is here clearly for me the favorite.”
