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 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 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 Rene Pfeiffer
In der Nase für mich erst mal untypisch für einen Agricole. Kein Gras, dafür Rotwein. Am Gaumen kommen dann die typisch grasig, frischen Aromen. Bleibt im Abgang würzig-röstig und salzig.
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.
Review by Johannes
Beautifully fruity, grassy, herbal, complex. Alcohol well integrated.
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 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 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 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 Thunderbird
Ein Agricole mit Ecken und Kanten, irgendwie zwischen: nicht mehr ganz frisch und noch nicht alt genug! Aber dennoch ein klasse Rum
Review by Oliver
Great, young Agricole! Intense, floral and wintery spicy (cinnamon and baked apple). Top selection!
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 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.
