Clément Cuvée Spéciale XO

8.8/10
Rated by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰, Mathieu C. & 22 more

Dried banana peel, buttercream and nutty oak run through this aged Martinique agricole, with tobacco and pepper underneath. Tasters call it complex and balanced, with little alcohol burn for 44% and a long finish that turns oaky-dry with just a hint of sweetness. A blend of old vintages built for slow sipping, not quick mixing — and several note it's a treat rather than an everyday pour.

  • Complex and balanced
  • Long dry finish

This rum will explode with flavours in your mouth. A heavy taste that will slowly fade into a heavenly feeling of bliss. This rum is blended from the bast casks of 1952, 1970 and 1976 and this may be the best rum in the world. Well worth the price tag it comes with.

8.5/10

Incisive nose at first sight with a burning side, woody, spicy (pepper, pepper) then citrus (lime), light fruity (dried fruits), dark chocolate at the end, brandy... "fine and powerful" nose

Great tasting Agricole with a fine balance between the floral juicy notes and woody spiciness. Pretty dry and medium finish. My nose is hit with grass, pepper, brown sugar and citrus. It's currently my go-to Agricole but at the price it will not earn a fixed spot at my shelves.

Some seriously good Agricole stuff. Nice complex aroma with little noticeable alcohol fumes. Very balanced. Goos long finish with some oaky dryness and a hint of sweetness. Love this stuff.
