Tasted at Manchester rum fest 2024
Review by Fasen
Rhum très décevant.. Très léger aqueux on a l'impression de sentir l'eau de la dilution plus qu'autre chose... Pour la catégorie de prix on peut trouver bien mieux c'est certain.. Outré !
Review by Pascal Gwada
Bon rhum à prix contenu et belle bouteille, doux, sur le caramel, le café , empyreumatique, pas très long ni riche mais très sympathique et facile Édit en aveugle Avent 2024: différent de ma bouteille (que je préfère). Nez et bouche sur le fruit mûr, les épices apparaissent en bouche et prennent le pas sur la longueur. Il m'a fait penser à un Marsolle merisier . Toujours aussi doux et agréable, facile et peu complexe mais très agréable. Plutôt 7.5 pour cet échantillon de l'Avent. Regoûté sur ma bouteille, toujours 8.5, avec en + une petite impression de cerise en bouche. Décidément soit les échantillons de l'avent soit les millésimes changent la donne.

Review by Werner10
The complexity for being only 7 years old is amazing imo. Very fruity taste and a long finish. I might have to buy a bottle 🤔 Full bottle worthy 👌

Review by alex
Quite good. A pleasant nose and very well-integrated alcohol. Nice complexity on the palate, with medium length. Honeyed and herbaceous. Spices and wood, quite well balanced. It's been a year and a half since I opened the bottle and I find it much better today than the day I opened it. A fine improvement on this "classic" juice, which has a lot to offer with patience.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A rum from the classic J. Bally range that has a lot to offer. The nose offers a skilful blend of herbal, floral and grassy notes, combined with spicy, vanilla and leather aromas, all rounded out by dried and tropical fruit flavors. The whole is well-balanced and pleasant on the nose. On the palate, we find the spicy, vegetal character typical of the house, with nuts, earthy notes and dried fruit. The whole is easy to drink, quite rich and greedy. The finish is longer than it appears, with hints of exotic fruit that blend perfectly with the slightly earthy, caramelized agricultural profile. A good entry-level rum for neophytes wishing to approach more complex rums. The quality/price ratio is also very good, with aromas and flavors that live up to expectations.
Review by Godspeed
Update: After having had this bottle open for about a year and tasting it again I’m astonished to find that it is far better now than when freshly opened. Basically I get it now, it’s really quite good for the age and it’s amazing how the taste changes for the better in an open bottle. There seems to be an incredible development potential in the rums from this brand. I think Bally rums need a tremendous amount of age on them to really come into their own. When fresh from breaking the seal there’s a clayish dry quality to the taste that is just disagreeable but give it some months open and it matures beautifully.
Review by Nicofr
A good agricultural rum with lovely fruity notes despite its youth. Having tasted it several times over several months, I also think it reveals its best notes after a few days' opening. A pleasant surprise.
Review by Renato
Du bois jeune, anisé, presque résineux. Mais peu d'arômes supplémentaires. Décevant pour un XO.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
A very nice rum despite it being as young as it is. Typical Agricole again with the vegetal notes, fruity and lovely spices. There is a hint of chocolate which is clearer once the glass has been standing for an hour after emptying. Price to quality is very good.
