Aroma visualization from community tastings
J. Bally Rhum Ambré
Don't let the amber color fool you into expecting something rich and mellow — this is a young, rustic Martinique agricole. Grassy cane juice, pepper, and a floral, herbal streak lead, with dried fruit peeking through. A couple tasters flag a "medically bitter" edge and a short finish, but at 45% it's got real backbone and makes a fresh, lime-forward Ti-Punch.
The community says- Juicy cane juice
- Floral, grassy notes
- But: Short finish

How does J. Bally Rhum Ambré taste?
Aggregated from 35 community reviews.
Young, grassy agricole for Ti-Punch Well-liked as an everyday agricole and a good Ti-Punch base. Fans enjoy the juicy grassy cane; others find it thin, a touch bitter, and short on the finish.

Review by Émile Shevek
Giovane e immaturo, ma non per questo con meno personalità
Review by Michael Turner
Angenehm floral-medizinisch, süffig aber kurz im Abgang.
Review by Korkennase
Dieser Rhum braucht Zeit im Glas, um sein Aroma zu verströmen. Die Nase wird von Früchten, Zimt und Vanille betört. Der Geschmack wird eher durch florale, grasige und einer pfeffrigen Note bestimmt mit etwas Bleistiftspähne im Hintergrund. Der Abgang ist trocken, erdig, floral, pfeffrig und man hat jetzt eine holzige Note im Abgang. Der Ti-Punch richt einladend frisch, fruchtig und schön nach Limette. Der Geschmack ist leicht süßlich, durch den Rohrzucker, mit floralen und grasigen Noten. Diesen Rhum kann ich nur empfehlen👍, ein toller Ti-Punch.🥃 Sehr süffig 😋

Excellent pour les cocktails ✌️
Review by Stefan Persson
Overall an Agricole with very weak taste and the alcohol is quite dominant. Besides that it’s the grassy, herbal and vegetable notes that’s mostly recognizable even if it’s also possible to recognize some fruits, oak and tobacco.
Review by Righrum
The more i drink this rhum, the more i like it. The abv makes this rhum not at all watery, both nosing and sipping. On the nose, sweet and fruity, while drinking there is an interesting dirty note (somehow it makes me thinks of worm tubes in Whisky)
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
nicht sonderlich angenehm, seltsam medizinisch bittere Note...
