Rhum Chantal Comte Depaz Rum Agricole Extra Vieux 1975
If you chase old, mellow agricole, this 1975 Depaz bottling for Chantal Comte is aimed right at you. Think nuts, oak, leather, tobacco and a milk-chocolate softness, with yellow fruit and honey underneath. Most tasters find it beautifully balanced and velvety from a lifetime in cask. The one recurring gripe: at 45% reduced, several call the palate a touch thin and watery.
The community says- Balanced nutty nose
- Soft aged wood
- But: Palate reads thin

How does Rhum Chantal Comte Depaz Rum Agricole Extra Vieux 1975 taste?
Aggregated from 24 community reviews.
Soft, woody old agricole, slightly thin palate A widely loved old Martinique agricole — soft, woody, nutty and layered on the nose. The common catch is a palate some find a little thin and watered-down.

Review by Joachim Guger
A bar in Vienna has an open bottle and I took a sample with me 😀 Woody, spicy, honey, a little solvent. Let it breathe... Now come more dried fruits, ripe mango and citrus. A melted and heavily roasted bouquet. Good strength. Very spicy/woody in the mouth, perhaps a little thin, but this may be due to the fact that the bottle was opened some time ago. Long, very peppery finish. The highlight of the tasting! 🤩 A great, worthy rum full of emotion. A rum I've always wanted to taste. Chantal Comte and Depaz, that makes my eyes light up. 😍 The book to go with it: Patrick Fermor's "The Violins of Jean-Jaques".
Review by Benoit Mahe
The cashew note on the nose bothers me a little (reminds me of Montaguere's Karukera Christian). It fades after a long opening. The palate, on the other hand, has what I like in these great Martiniquais: elegant oak and gourmet nuts, refreshed just right by the spices.
Review by Émile Shevek
The nose is rich, with notes of roasted, tobacco, sugar/honey, leather, some spice, and forest. On the palate it is an explosion containing floral, woody/woody, fruity(dates, mango, plum and white grapes), chocolate, tobacco and leather hints in a fairly dry setting and a light, delicate finish with hazelnut ice cream and an almost perfect roundness, the fruity notes stand out.
