Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Wow, quite extraordinary for a 4-ender! Seems much older than it is, has really nice, woody depth. Alcohol could be a little better integrated, but for this quality excellent PLV. Successful label (even if that is for the smell / taste heartily indifferent).
Review by Lukas Jäger
Beautiful Martinique rum! With its 58% He delivers decent taste, although the alcohol could be a little better integrated. But that is for four years already quite neat. Blind I would have him by the nose not at all prescribed in Martinique, the mixture of fruity notes and something sweet-caramel is not so typical for me. On the palate then but more herbal-earthy, overall very tasty as I find!

Very good value for money, no bad surprises. The taste and the watts are there.
Review by Werni
Wow, eine erstaunlich intensive Nase für das junge Alter,gefällt mir sehr gut. Auch der Gaumen erstaunt mich, die Intensität des Fasses nach der kurzen Zeit. Hätte ich mir mal ne Flasche zulegen sollen,jetzt isses bestimmt zu spät.
Review by Chrischi78
Eine echte Überraschung. Kommt der Rum mit 4 Jahren Reife ja eher als Grundschüler daher, entwickelt er doch auf der Zunge ein ordentliches breites Kreuz. Schöne Komplexität mit Holz, Frucht ubd grasigen Noten. Agricole ist halt immer wieder dafür gut, auch zu erschwinglichen Preisen einen tollen Rhum zu finden!!!

Review by Leo Krüper
Super eas sipper. Ideal für Einsteiger. Plv ist für 4 Jahre tropisch in Ordnung
Review by Alex1981
Nice sipper that starts relaxed and only develops a certain sharpness at the end. The tropical influence seems to have developed its effect despite short storage, but you can still tell that it is a little unrounded. PLV super.
Review by Frank
Young, fresh, Agricole. Nose: clearly Agricole. Spicy, woody, fruity. Young wood, almost a little green, plus intense lime, green apple and tart-sweet gooseberry, kiwi and redcurrant. A fine vinegar note is added here. Young and unripe, but pleasant. 7,4 Palate: spicy, woody, nutty, fruity, young. Pleasantly malty, with the sweetness of tonka bean and liquorice. Sweet cherry wood and mace with walnut. Also herbs, camomile, hay and grass. Most fruit is blackcurrant and prune. There is also a fine eucalyptus note and my typical soapiness. Very pleasant without being complicated. 7,8
Review by Johannes
Very good overall package! Young Agricole with very good PLV!
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Holt mich nicht wirklich ab. Sehr bissig, scharf und primär fleischig umami nach Maggi und Röstaromen von jungem Holz. Irgendwie nicht rund und sehr ausbalanciert.... Definitiv keine Trinkempfehlung von mir.
