Montebello Rhum Vieux Agricole (Batch Année 2022)
Most tasters land on the same read: a young Guadeloupe agricole that works better in a glass with ice or in cocktails than sipped and analyzed. You get grass, sugarcane and a peppery bite up front, a little vanilla and wood from the aging, plus a licorice edge some like less than others. Fruity notes of citrus and yellow fruit round it out. Pleasant, not memorable.
The community says- Grassy and fruity
- Light vanilla, wood
- Keep in mind: Young, simple

How does Montebello Rhum Vieux Agricole (Batch Année 2022) taste?
From community reviews · summarized with AI
Young, grassy agricole better for mixing Opinions cluster around "decent but average." Fans enjoy the grassy, fruity balance and light vanilla; others find it too young, too simple, and heavy on licorice. More an everyday agricole than a sipper.

Nice combination of fruitiness and agricole aroma, vanilla, well-used cask. The taste is hard to describe, but again it's a mix of agricole with fruit, spices, well-used cask, nutmeg. The finish is in a similar vein. Very well done from me.

Very neutral mid-range agricole that is not bad but is not standing out of the crowd of agricole rhums. It feels more like a mixer type of the agricole rhum than a sipper. I cannot find one specific note that stands out and differentiates this rhum from others. Maybe a peppery intro and bitterness in the finish.
Review by Stefan Persson
The 3yo from Montebello is a blend of 70% 3yo rhum, 20% 8yo rhum and 10% of 12yo rhum which gives an average age of 5 years. It’s actually the only aged Montebello rhum that is a blend. All the others are vintages. As a summary I think they have made a great job to create this blend.

#7183 19.08.2026 Relaxing with a few samples after a nice bike training. Listening to some tracks by Charlotte de Witte on Spotify. Decent rum but I would have loved a higher ABV. I think this one was watered down to death. Light profile with fruits, caramel, honey, spice, woody and tannins.
Review by Timo Groeger
Then an Agricole from Montebello afterwards. Average, nothing special. The nose is fruity, herbs and grass are also recognizable. On the palate then very vegetal + sugarcane, but also some metal and pepper are noticeable.
Review by Vincent D
A rather well-made young agricole. The cane is still present. The wood has already had its effect. Fruity, with a hint of citrus. A touch of vanilla too. Nice, but if the reduction is significant
Review by Serge
Average Agricole with grass, herbs, vegetal notes, and sugarcane with citrus peel. Also some fruitiness of yellow fruits. Nothing special and Agricole, like I don't really like it.
Review by Lutz Lungershausen
24 Days of Rum 2024 - Black Edition - Day 11 First impression: pleasantly fruity, sweet agricole Nose: nicely balanced between floral and fruity aromas, complexity hints (7+) Palate: grass, cereals, body, alcohol, hint of metallic (<7) Finish: medium, otherwise personally unimpressive Overall impression: not usually a big fan of Agricole, but I like this one. I can imagine it very well in mixers
Review by Luck Harissa
I'm really trying to like this rum, but I just can't. Despite its low alcohol content, it feels like I'm drinking Bacardi Carta Blanca, with that very medicinal and bitter side that burns my mouth.
Review by Werner10
Only 3 years old but just as good as the 6 year old.
Review by Yannick D.
Very good rum from Guadeloupe, a very soft attack, full of aromas, and a short but very aromatic finish. I love it.
Review by Ondra RumRunner
Carrere Montebello Rhum Vieux Agricole is a traditional agricole rum from Guadeloupe, known for its herbal and earthy nature. The aroma delivers vegetal and grassy notes complemented by spices, pineapple, and subtle vanilla. On the palate, vegetal undertones, light pepperiness, and citrus freshness come through, along with hints of licorice and wood. This rum is a great choice for those who appreciate the authentic character of agricole rums.
Review by Maxime Clr 🇫🇷
Too simple, too young, too much licorice. Low-end. Not much to get out of it.
Review by Robert Houba
Not very pronounced, hint of fruit, sugar cane. Sharp finish.
Review by Solidfunk
Day 11 on 24 days of rum calendar. Maybe the best yet and that isn't saying much, though I haven't hit all the 10 previous yet. Vanilla, light cherry wood or sherry. Light golden pour. Pleasant bit of perfume at the end. I'd be interested to try some of their more aged stuff.

Disgusting, moonshine..
Review by Oli Dekrell
Good Rhum Agricole
Review by Dominic Lutz
A solid Agricole that appeals to me a bit more than the Martinique bottlings because of the milder cellar note. Still, it remains rather average for me.
Review by Oggy
Peppery and spicy on the finish.
