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

Summarized by AI from 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.

Great, young Agricole! Intense, floral and wintery spicy (cinnamon and baked apple). Top selection!

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 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
Very nice Agricole with complex aromas on the palate. Very pleasant with beautiful floral/earthy notes. The finish feels like it lasts forever. Very great. Maybe just a bit too sweet. The next tasting will show.
Review by RumTaTa
Good agricole rum, very long aftertaste!
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 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 primus
Here, meadow flowers and grain fields shake hands. A rum for nature lovers. Tasting number two: Agricole is definitely an acquired taste, and this one is very agricole. By now I definitely like it better.
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
Good Agricole with nice herbal notes, better than some single casks from Saint James and the like. Some wood and green, spices, herb garden, alcohol is reasonably integrated. Quite enjoyable.
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 SaibotZtar
At first, a great nice sweetness... fills the whole mouth... then the typical grassy agricole taste comes through but relatively subtle, nicely fruity fresh without being intrusive... I like it.
Review by Christian Rudt
Predominantly floral-spicy, strong cask influence and somehow different. This only four-year-old Agricole simply has its own charm. (It also crossed the Atlantic with Tres Hombres) On the nose cinnamon and tea, on the palate nicely salty, slightly fruity and a bit sweet, showing its youth. Definitely a nice sipping rum.
Review by Johannes
Beautifully fruity, grassy, herbal, complex. Alcohol well integrated.
Review by Beach-and-Rum 🏖️🌴
Pleasant fruity Agricole but for me without real highlights.
Review by Boletus
Besides the ever-present fruit note of dried apricots, herbs show with a slightly soapy hint of coriander leaves, spices, a cedar-like woodiness, and after long chewing also fine nuances of tropical fruits. Unfortunately, it sometimes stings a bit alcoholic in the mouth and in the aftertaste the oak becomes a bit too musty and moldy for me, but otherwise there are some nice things to discover here.
Review by Martin Švojgr
Young agricole, the taste of baked apple, candied fruit and cinnamon stands out a lot. Clear agricole origin. At the end, young grassiness remains in the mouth and it reminds a lot of other La Favorite releases. It lacks time in the barrel for fullness and more complex flavors.
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
On the nose for me initially atypical for an Agricole. No grass, but red wine. On the palate then the typical grassy, fresh aromas come through. Stays spicy-roasty and salty on the finish.
Review by Djehey
Not a big fan of the profile...
Review by Schnubbii
On the nose a bit of apple, but also light yellow fruits. On the palate then very fruity, almost a whole orchard of light yellow fruits like mirabelles and with very slight grassy aromas in the background. The alcohol is very well integrated, in the finish then slight caramel and again grassy aromas. For my taste a very tasty thing, many thanks to Chris for the Secret Santa sample! I probably wouldn't buy a whole bottle, but I'm glad I could try it and look forward to more releases from La Favorite.
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 Sebastiaan Linssen
Tasted at GRF opening party Good rum, if you're into Agricole. It is a signature Agricole style.
Review by Thunderbird
An Agricole with edges and corners, somehow between: no longer quite fresh and not yet old enough! But still a great rum.
Review by Martin Ekrt
Typical hearty fresh agricole aroma, sugar cane, nutmeg. Very delicious body in taste. Very nice mix of agricole with fruit. Finish fairly spicy, herbal with pepper and nuts, woody. Overall quite a successful piece.
Review by Agricoler
Super agricole that totally grabs me, especially impressing with a nice sweetness. At the same time, a totally fruity balance between dried components and fresh yellow/green fruits.
Review by Pavel Ungr, RumRock
Vintage 2017. I rate it 8.2 out of 10, very good rum.
