Rhum J.M 2000

"Un nez incroyable," as one French taster puts it — and that nose is the story here. Nougat, almond, sugarcane and a curious whiff of petrol, backed by warm spice. On the palate it turns nutty and creamy with real barrel influence, the alcohol tucked in well despite the modest 41.9%. A couple of members find the wood takes over and the body a touch thin, but most just enjoy the ride.

The community says
  • Nougat and almond
  • Atypical for agricole
  • But: Wood can dominate

How does Rhum J.M 2000 taste?

Summarized by AI from 26 community reviews.

Nutty, nougat-rich agricole with an atypical nose Most agree it's a lovely, atypical agricole — nutty nose, nougat and cocoa on the palate. If you want a big body and long finish, the low ABV shows.

This is my favorite Rhum J.M! Nose: Atypical petrol notes(reminds me on 2000th BMMG’s) paired with anise and nougat surrounded by the typical notes of the sugarcane and almonds. Mouth: Is more on the fruity and sugarcane side with a good impact of the barrel. The alcohol and wood is integrated very well. Finish: Dry, cocoa, Eucalyptus?!?, woody, vanilla, mocha and licorice. Really delicious🤤

The nose is really inviting and offers a lot despite its low ABV. Fruity notes, some spices and a hint of polish are also present. On the palate, however, it is simply too flat and watery for me. Unfortunately, the finish is also very short.

Great spicy and nutty nose. Agricolic notes with a lot of barrel influence. Creamy, nutty and memories of nougat on the palate. Very well integrated alcohol. Very good Rhum Agricole!

Rhum J.M 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 250 Rums

Rhum J.M is Martinique's oldest surviving distillery, tucked into a lush volcanic valley in Macouba on the northern slopes of Mount Pelee. It is the only producer on the island that makes its rum entirely from its own cane, milled within an hour of cutting, and its brown-sugar signature has made J.M one of the most beloved agricole names with collectors.
