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

How does Rhum Chantal Comte Depaz Rum Agricole Extra Vieux 1975 taste?
Summarized by AI from 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 Timo Groeger
And third to last, a nice Agricole. You can recognize wood here, as well as some spice. Leather, vanilla, and cinnamon stand out especially. But I still find it quite tasty. Nice Agricole.

Review by mto75
A special rum in the glass today! The nose is rather restrained at first, but also somehow velvety soft. Spicy notes, allspice, orange zest, malt, dried fruit, melting milk chocolate. Musk nut, malt coffee on the palate. A little watery, but not dramatic...Many thanks to Vienna for the great sample!
Review by Chrischi78
Wonderfully smooth aged Agricole. It feels great to have a rum in your glass that is older than you are. Very soft and round overall, with the expected woody notes and hints of nuts and leather.
Review by Thunderbird
A very pleasant soft Agricole that cannot deny its age and dilution. But that doesn't harm it at all, the wood influence blends very well with the fruity aromas. On the palate besides the fruity also spicy and woody aromas appear. This creates a very gentle and soft interplay. The finish then develops more on the woody side.
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 Vincent D
Wow, what a rum! How I love these rums that evolve endlessly in the glass, alternating between dark and reassuring notes. Just as pleasant on the nose as on the palate. Eternal finish with just the right amount of bitterness. It's magnificent, simply magnificent.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Had a lovely 1975 tasting today so I had to bring some of my gold as well :-)
Review by Tschusikowsky
Glue, cleaner, dried fruits and yellow fruits. Clear agricole character, plus some brandy-like notes with plum and a fine sweetness. Surprisingly crisp on the palate, with light roasted aromas. The 45% feels more restrained, more like a 40% bottling. The profile is noble, but watery in the mouth and the texture and aroma profile too thin. In the finish ripe yellow peach and some black pepper. Overall I miss some power and depth. Still a very good, elegant rhum.
Review by Master P
On the nose, a nice composition of yellow fruits, herbs, vanilla, and caramel. Milk chocolate! On the palate as balanced as on the nose, with the influence of the cask becoming more dominant. Nuts, oak, caramel, and rusty aromas. Nice thing but a bit weak and a little too thin. But the smell is amazing.
Review by ArminK
Sample found from my own split. On the nose first a bit of vinegar then agricole notes and fruit. On the palate a bit weak but still fruit, nuts, chocolate with roasted aromas. Hardly woody which is really nice for the age. Weak finish.
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.
Review by Mopar Rules
The few rhums I tried from Chantal Comte have all been outstanding, so is this one. Beautiful balanced on the nose, a nice composition of yellow fruits, herbs, vanilla and karamell. Milk chocolate! As balanced on the palate as on the nose with the influence of the cask becoming more dominant. Nuts, oak, karamel and rosty flavors. Not too long of a finish.
Review by Jarek
Wow! What a strong nose! Definitely an Agricole, but a mature one, with lots of spice, wood, tobacco, and a bit of orange peel. Nutty, woody, and with tobacco notes on the palate as well, but unfortunately somehow thin and watered down. That unfortunately dulls the overall impression a bit.
Review by Adrien B
N pretty woody citrus B greedy woody cocoa spicy finish. Damp undergrowth. Very pleasant. Well-balanced, mellow woodiness, short finish makes you want more.
Review by Maxime Clr 🇫🇷
A nice rum, buttery, vanilla, with some nut and wood, but it has a herbal side and cinnamon notes that bother me... though it's very delicate.
