La Favorite Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 19 Rhum Agricole VSOP 2017
Agricole drinkers looking for a cask-strength La Favorite will find plenty here: cane grass, dried apricot and candied fruit, with cinnamon and baked-apple spice that reads almost like a winter market. At 53.9% the alcohol is mostly well tucked in, though a few tasters caught a rough, hot edge. Grassy, herbal, faintly salty — young but characterful.
The community says- Dried fruit spice
- Cask-strength character

How does La Favorite Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 19 Rhum Agricole VSOP 2017 taste?
Aggregated from 67 community reviews.
Grassy, spicy cask-strength young agricole Most agricole fans enjoyed this fruity, spicy, grass-forward pour and rated it well. The catch: at four years it drinks young, and a few found the alcohol a touch too sharp.

Review by Schnubbii
In der Nase etwas Apfel, aber auch helle gelbe Früchte. Am Gaumen dann sehr fruchtig, fast ein ganzer Obstgarten aus hellen gelben Früchten wie Mirabellen und dazu ganz leicht grasige Aromen im Hintergrund. Der Alkohol ist sehr gut eingebunden, im Abgang dann leicht Karamell und wieder grasige Aromen. Für meinen Geschmack ein sehr leckeres Teil, vielen Dank an Chris für das Wichtel Sample! Eine ganze Flasche würde ich mir wohl nicht kaufen, aber ich freue mich, dass ich ihn probieren konnte und bin gespannt auf weitere Abfüllungen von La Favorite.
Review by Martin Švojgr
Mladý agricole, hodně vystupuje chuť pečeného jablka, kandovaného ovoce a skořice. Jasný agricolový původ. Na konci zůstává v puse mladá travnatost a dost připomíná ostatní La Favorite plnění. K plnosti a komplexnějším chutím mu chybí čas v sudu.
Review by Boletus
Neben der dauerpräsenten Fruchtnote von getrockneten Aprikosen zeigen sich Kräuter mit dem leicht seifigen Anklang von Koriandergrün, Gewürze, eine mich an Zedern erinnernde Holzigkeit sowie nach langem Kauen auch feine Nuancen tropischer Früchte. Leider sticht es ab und zu ein wenig alkoholisch im Mund und beim Nachgeschmack wird die Eiche für mich ein bisschen zu morsch und modrig, aber sonst gibt es hier einige schöne Sachen zu entdecken.
Review by Timo Groeger
Next sample from a buddy. To be honest, I had higher expectations here. You can smell candidates and dried fruit on the nose. Then the same on the palate. Somehow it has a rough taste and is very alcoholic.
Review by Christian Rudt
Vorwiegend floral-würzig, Fassstark und irgendwie anders. Dieser erst vierjährige Agricole hat einfach seinen eigenen Charme. (Kam ja auch mit der Tres Hombres über den Atlantik) In der Nase Zimt und Tee, am Gaumen schön salzig, leicht fruchtig und ein wenig süße merkt ihm seine Jugend noch an. Definitiv ein schöner Sipping Rhum.
Review by primus
Hier geben sich Blumenwiese und Getreidefeld die Hand. Ein Rum für Naturfreunde. Verkostung Nummer zwei: Agricole ist definitiv ein acquired taste, und dieser ist sehr agricolig. Inzwischen schmeckt er mir definitiv besser.
Review by mto75
Can't play at the top (with La Flibuste & Co), but in any case an interesting La Favorite, also because it's a cask strength...on the nose, besides earthy and green notes, mainly winter spices, baked apple and cream candy. On the palate rather grassy-peppery and clove.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Thinking about the age of this rum they really picked the right barrel to bottle. The smoothness of La Favorite is there alongside the Agricole notes and some dried fruit and candy notes. Light wood on the profile and nice spices. Price to quality is very good.
Review by Johnny Rumcask
Guter Agricole mit schönen kräutrigen Noten, der besser ist als so manche Single Casks von Saint James und Konsorten. Etwas Holz und Grün, Gewürze, Kräutergarten, Alkohol ist vernünftig eingebunden. Macht durchaus Spaß.
Review by Basti
Typical notes of an agricole on the nose. Sugar cane juice, grassy notes, vanilla, some grape. Relatively fresh and young. Still fairly round on the palate with lots of floral/flowery aromas. Creamy/oily mouthfeel. Thanks @chris2302 for the sample!
Review by Christoph
Extremely spicy Agricole. Sugar cane notes I do not find here. In the finish earthy herbal notes that remind me more of Guyana. Lots of nut. Lots of salt. Alcohol is too noticeable for my taste.
Review by Alexander Rasch
Sehr schöner Agricole mit vielschichtigen Aromen am Gaumen. Sehr gefällig und schöne florale/ erdige Noten. Der Abgang dauert gefühlt eine Ewigkeit. Sehr toll. Nur evtl. etwas zu süß. Das wird die nächste Verkostung zeigen.
Review by SaibotZtar
zu Anfang tolle schöne Süße ...füllt den ganzen Mund aus.... dann kommt der Typische grasige Agricole Geschmack durch aber relativ dezent schön Fruchtig frisch ohne aufdringlich zu wirken... gefällt mir.
Review by Mentalo
A young rhum agricole with very pronounced vegetal notes. A woody note is then added, especially in the finish. I was missing a counterpart to the dominant grassy/vegetable notes. Little sweetness or fruit.
Review by Michael Ihmels 🇩🇪
Perhaps I should have drunk this rum in winter rather than at 30 degrees in summer. At least it tastes slightly like a Christmas market. Candied fruit meets baked apple and almonds. All in all, not wrong
Review by Beach-and-Rum 🏖️🌴
Angenehmer fruchtiger Agricole allerdings für mich ohne richtige highlights.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
incredibly round and delicious favori! very fruity and wintry after dried figs and baked apple on the nose, as well as candied pecans, slight saltiness and very smooth but still strong enough!
Review by RumTaTa
Guter Agricole Rum, sehr langer Nachklang!
Review by Agricoler
Super Agricole der mich total abholt, der vorallem durch eine schöne Süße besticht . Gleichtmzeitig eine totale fruchtige Balance zwischen getrockneten Komponenten und frischen gelben/grünen Früchten.
