Longueteau GENESIS Collection White (Batch 4) 2020
Sip this one in tiny drops with a little water — at 73.8% it hits hard. Nose is fresh red cane and lemon, floral and lightly medicinal; the palate goes fruity and oily with citrus, pepper, olive and a bit of salt. One taster called it one of the best agricole blancs he's had. The heat builds fast, so take it slow.
The community says- Fresh cane, citrus
- Long oily finish
- But: Fierce heat

How does Longueteau GENESIS Collection White (Batch 4) 2020 taste?
Aggregated from 36 community reviews.
Fierce, fresh-cane cask-strength agricole blanc A powerful, unaged agricole blanc that most rate highly — fresh cane, citrus and a long saline finish. The obvious catch is the ferocious cask-strength heat; sip it slowly.

Review by Stefan Persson
This Longueteau Genesis Blanc batch 4 from the Esperance distillery in Guadeloupe is produced from red cane, grown on plot No. 9 at the habitation. It’s from the 2020 harvest and has rested for 2 years and some months after its distillation in a stainless tank aerated regularly. Thereafter is this brut de colonne bottled without any reduction at 73,8% in 5000 bottles. The nose is powerful, round, fruity and a bit medicinal with scents of pepper, salt and iodine. At the palate it’s complex, fresh, acidic and a little bitter with flavors of salt, lemon, lime zest and raspberry. The finish is long, fresh and dry with flavors of herbs, pepper, licorice and raspberry. Overall one of the best Agricole Blanc I’ve tasted so far.
Review by TheRhumhoe
Well, this Longueteau is no laughing matter! It's a real powerhouse, with a nervous, taut nose of citrus, cane and classic agricultural aromas (vegetal greenery, floral notes, grass) and peppery spices that quiver and tremble impatiently in the nostrils. You can tell there's plenty under the hood. The result is immediate: while the first few seconds are surprisingly mellow with the vesuvius, the explosion really does permeate the mouth with intense, spicy heat. The raw product in its purest form. The flavors are very prominent, even on a nano-gorge: citrus (lemon) and greenery are very powerful. A profile to be approached with caution and parsimony. The finish is no exception: dry, powerful, intensely agricultural, but quickly counterbalanced by an alcohol burn. Pimento, lemon and orange zest share an anesthetized palate to restore some flavor. A rum to be approached with caution to avoid oral depucellation.
Review by Pascal Gwada
74 laBdR juin 2023. 65 tonneau Impressionnant: très puissant, gras, et bon ! Ça chauffe - Ça chauffe, et c'est bon - c'est bon ! Nez: Très canne fraîche et citron, on ne sent pas trop l'alcool, très doux, semble à peine un 50dg (un très bon). Bouche : ça y est ça chauffe sérieusement ! mais un régal. Très gras, explosion de saveurs, fruitées, agrumes, pas amer, belle réussite. Grosse longueur, douce sur la canne fraîche.
Review by LV Anonyme
Just impressive! Aromatic intensity like I've rarely tasted. Extremely complex, with power at the start, which then opens up on the palate with notes of banana, exotic fruit and sugar cane! With a warmth that rises to a crescendo on the palate. The long, slightly saline finish balances everything out. To be enjoyed in small, gentle sips.
Review by Eric Nivaille
A fire of God. Its title of Brut de Colonnes is a real surprise. Notes of banana, sugar cane, and after the fire of this high degree of alcohol, a roundness of fruit and floral, happy to be one of the 5000 to be able to re-discover it over the next few tastings.
Review by Mc Pirate
Quel plaisir de retrouver ce Genesis un peu moins expressif que le 2000! Nez franc de canne à sucre et encore un voyage aux Antilles françaises ! Bouche ample sur la canne toujours et une légère touche herbacée qui apporte une petite amertume. Finale moyenne sur la canne.
