Aroma visualization from community tastings
Rhum Santa Lucilia 1970
"A beautiful nose, shame about the palate" sums up the consensus here. It opens fruity and inviting — cherry, grilled pineapple, dried herbs, vanilla and a clear cognac note that sets it apart from most agricoles. Then the mouth arrives thin and diluted, the pretty aromas fade, and a dry, dusty, slightly bitter oak closes it out short. A 1970 Martinique curiosity that promises more than it pours.
The community says- Fruity cognac nose
- Grilled pineapple
- But: Thin diluted palate

The look inside the bottle
How does Rhum Santa Lucilia 1970 taste?
Aggregated from 15 community reviews.
Gorgeous nose, thin diluted palate The verdict is consistent: an impressive nose let down by a watery, simple palate and an odd bitter finish. A collector's bottle more than a drinking one.

Review by Timo Groeger
Hier der Rhum Santa Lucilia 1970. Hat wie ich finde eine schöne fruchtige Nase, außerdem einen sehr deutlichen Cognacgeruch. Am Gaumen ist dieser für mich leicht würzig, aber auch leicht süss. Cognac kommt wieder zum Vorschein, aber überwiegend ist er holzig. Meine Erwartung war leider höher.
Review by cigares
A lovely fruity nose with vegetal, cherry, roasted pineapple, dried herbs and vanilla. The palate is disappointing, diluted, simple, even simplistic, warm and the beautiful aromas of the nose have disappeared. The finish is short, a little dusty, bitter and bizarre at the very end, with a dry oakiness. A nice nose here, fruitier than the agricultural ones in general, but the palate is thin and the finish not very pleasant.
