Longueteau 125 ans
The nose promises something old and heavy — dark caramel, dried plums, spice, roasted nuts, a whiff of very old Armagnac — then the palate turns lighter than you expect. This is an aged Guadeloupe agricole, cognac-cask matured, dry and woody with brown sugar and stewed fruit underneath. Elegant and mature, but several tasters find it a touch thin and short at 44.4%.
The community says- Mature complex nose
- Balanced wood & fruit
- But: Thin body

How does Longueteau 125 ans taste?
Aggregated from 52 community reviews.
Elegant aged agricole, a touch thin on the finish Most call it a fine, mature agricole — complex nose, balanced wood and dried fruit. The recurring gripe: too light on the body and finish, with a faint bitter edge.

Calendar #23 / blind In der Nase sehr röstig, dunkel gebranntes Karamell, altes Holz und etwas Anis. Gleichzeitig eine gewisse Frische trotz des spürbaren Alters. Agricole und Martinique könnte passen, genau wie der Armagnac-Vergleich. Am Gaumen dann auch sehr würzig, gleichzeitig aber auch recht mild und trocken. Wieder das Karamell, reife Birne, etwas Holz und leicht bittere Noten (Wurzel). Im Abgang kommen dann noch Süßholz und Kardamom hinzu. Gefällt mir gut, hat aber auch den Zenith im Fass leicht überschritten nach meinem Eindruck.
Review by Rare Akuma
#24DaysOfRum2023 - Day 23 On the nose a wonderful combination of spices and flowers. Potent and full. Clearly agricole, and definitely more floral than fruity. It opens with dried fruits, zest and subtle sugars before quite quickly turning to popped corn, roasted nuts and hay barn. These latter notes last throughout the entire experience before finishing in a bouquet of flowers. With agitation a rubbery note presents itself tying everything neatly together. A continuation of flavours on the palate. Dense, yet curiously complex. An espresso aftertaste is introduced that dials the bitterness up a notch. Or maybe even multiple notches. Pretty nice. However, there seems to be a theme among these ‘120 years’ of this and ‘240 years’ of that: overdilution. Again this product has been brought down too much (or too inefficiently). It’s not as bad as usual, but this should’ve been kept above 48 and it would have easily received mid 80’s. Despite the palate being too thin, the finish is still medium in length and quite potent: laurel and flowery, with a hint of rubber.
Review by Jonathan Massard
👃 canne à sucre bien présente qui évolue sur le sucre brun puis le caramel un peu trop cuit. Un beau boisé, des épices et quelques fruits confits. Des notes de torréfaction apparaissent (café). Un nez agréable et classique même si je trouve l'alcool un petit peu trop présent pour un titrage à 44,4%. 👄 L'alcool semble mieux intégré en bouche qu'au nez, c'est surprenant. Les fruits à l'eau de vie ne sont pas loin, un peu comme une vieille prune/mirabelle. Des épices de cuisine (cannelle, vanille) accompagnent un boisé toujours raffiné. Je perçois de la crème brûlée dominée par un joli caramel. Un bon et beau vieux blend agricole guadeloupéen au rapport qualité prix insuffisant.
Review by mto75
Zum 125-jährigen Jubiläum der Brennerei ein Cuvee aus rotem und blauem Zuckerrohr. Acht Monate Lagerung im Edelstahltank, danach in 300-Liter-Ex-Cognac-Fässern über drei Jahre gereift. An der Nase erstaunlich fruchtig, Richtung Aprikose oder Pfirsich, daneben noch Wikdblumen, Vanille und etwas Holz. Am Gaumen eher trocken, Holz und Gewürze. Kurzer, etwas bitterer Abgang.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Got a sample of this one yesterday and I placed an order for a bottle right away. A complex and well balanced release with fruity notes and lovely spices. The wood and dried fruits are balanced very well with the flavours of brown sugar. I can only recommend this rum if you like Longueteau. Price to quality is very good in my mind.
Review by Buddudharma
RumX Adventskalender 23.12.23: Hm, Ich denke, wir sind wieder im Agricole-Land. An der Nase ist dies deutlicher als am Gaumen, dennoch würde ich klar zu Agricole tendieren. Der Rum macht einen sehr alten, gesetzten Eindruck, fast ein bisschen wie ein sehr alter Armagnac. Die ausgeprägte Bitternote unterstreicht das. Das Profil ist in Summe trotzdem merklich zu dünn, in Kombination mit den genannten Geschmacksmarkern sowie einer leichten Parfümnote entsteht ein Gesamtprofil, das etwas zu unrund und unbefriedigend wirkt. Sicher ein hochwertiger, alter Rum, der mich aber kaum abholt. Ich könnte mir sowohl einen alten Guadeloupe (Gardel verdünnt, analog zum Rockley neulich?), aber auch einen alten Martinique-Rum (70er oder 80er, z.B. La Thibault Courville) vorstellen. Hat sicher beträchtliche Zeit im Fass verbracht (>12Jahre ). ABV <45%. Mal sehen…
Review by Djehey
Profil plutôt sec avec nette présence de la vanille et du Moka. Ça me fait penser à une liqueur de café. L'alcool n'est pas hyper bien intégré mais c'est plutôt une bonne chose puisque ça lui donne un côté poivré. Un rhum fin. Néanmoins, le prix de vente est exagéré...
Review by zabo
RumX Kalender Tag 23 Hätte gedacht es ist evtl ein J.M mit Armagnac finish. Wieder daneben gelegen. Toller Rum, der sich nach einer Weile im Glas noch weiter öffnet. Wieder einer, den ich von mir aus wohl erstmal nicht probiert hätte.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
RumX-Adventskalender 23.12.2023 Blindverkostung: Beim Riechen dachte ich noch: "Wow, das muss altes, krasses Zeug sein!" Beim Schmecken war ich dann etwas ernüchtert: weder alt noch krass, sondern dünn und grasig. Also ein Agricole. Aber seit der neue WDC (RX18006) meine neue Benchmark in Sachen Agricole ist, kommt dieser Rhum in meiner Bewertung unter die Räder. Sorry, aber ist in meinen Augen nix Besonderes.
Review by Vincent D
Un Longueteau au profil boisé très agréable. Le nez est complexe et équilibré et donne envie. Impression confirmée en bouche ou la trame boisée laisse la place à des fruits et à un rhum très gourmand. Belle bouteille.
Review by Mentalo
Schöne Abfüllung. Mit nur 44,4% wirkt es nicht wässrig. Gewürze, rote Frucht, grasig, angenehme Holznote. Schön ausbalanciert.
Review by TheJackDrop
Très belle bouteille, tire sur les fruits et le caramel, ne vaut sûrement pas 250€ quand même en terme gustatif
Review by Righrum
Rumx Advent calendar - day 24 - 23.12.2023 Typical profile of an aged Longueteau . Wood, spices, nuts. A bit of bitterness, rather unpleasant but this do not impairs the overall profile. The alcohol is noticeable despite low SBC, thus a lower score
Review by Michal S
Solidní agricole, pěkná ovocitá vůně, chuť více k sušenému ovoci a švestkám. Nepříliš dlouhá dochuť.
Review by Manuel
RumX Adventskalender Nr. 23: Schöner Agricole, leider ist der Abgang und der ABV etwas schwach.
Review by DomM
Nose is intense and fruity - feels very rich and mature. On the palate things get a bit thin unfortunately with spices and wood dominating the party. Finish is quite short, yet with a bit to much bitterness for this elegant bottling.
Review by Piotr Ignasiak
RX calendar 23 Quite mature Agricole with wood notes, at the same time a bit light on finish.
