Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
With a medium to long finish this was the nights favorite. Fruity and woody from nose to finish with spice and a light floral touch. A bottle very hard to find but none the less a great one.
Review by TheRhumhoe
Un rhum extraordinaire qui montre que le style français peut rivaliser avec le style britannique. Le nez est un régal olfactif, plongé entre les notes confites et pâtissières, les arômes de tabac, de fruits tropicaux et l’avalanche d’épices, le tout formant un mélange gourmand et très complexe. En bouche, l’attaque est intense mais terriblement délicieuse. Là encore, une triangulaire épicée, fruitée et pâtissière mène la danse tandis que le tabac, le bois, le cacao et les noix arrivent en embuscade. L’alcool est extrêmement bien intégré. La finale est longue, très épicée et fraîche, avec des notes de thé et de réglisse en complément d’un profil déjà superbe. Une véritable pépite sensationnelle qui fait partie du top tier des rhums agricoles.

J’ai eu la chance de goûter toute la série « tout de L’or ». Pour moi c’est le meilleur. Belle longueur, superbe équilibre. Belle complexité. Gros coup de ❤️

Madness! A real killer agricole!
Review by Thunderbird
The best Agricole I've had so far! From nose to palate very complex and intense ... the finish is nice medium length and rounds out the taste experience! Wonderful Today for the 2nd ten times in the glass, thanks RumX calendar! The enthusiasm continues 😎
Review by zabo
Lucky day today, the second absolute top drop in the glass. After tasting Saint James yesterday, this one is already worlds away. Hell yesterday, heaven today. This is probably the closest comparison. Thank you Joachim for opening up the world of Agricole to me once again.

#15th dec RumXCalendar Blind tasting: Nose: fruity, coconut, woody, light spicy, honey, pastries Mouth: coconut, citrus, fruity, agricole, earthy, tobacco, nutmeg Finish: long, oak, woody, earthy, delicious, black tea, milk chocolate Wow, this is an amazing agricole. Starts without being an agricole, but in the mouth it’s chancing immediately. The finish is long and delicious and earthy. Really a great rum. It’s an agricole. My prediction: from Martinique, but i’m unsure to pick a distillery. ca. 55% approx. 15 Years
Review by Tom Buteneers
RumXmas 2022, #15, blind: I’m going with agricole, but I’m lacking experience in the French style to make an educated guess. I can’t differentiate enough between the distilleries. It opens up really nice, floral-honey flavors for me. Wow alcohol integration is amazing… first Chantal Comte for me I think. Not disappointed 😍

Une merveille !!
Review by Émile Shevek
Al naso un po' di solvente, frutti rossi, legno, zucchero tostato, tabacco e agrumi. Al palato è sia speziato(pepe soprattutto) che fruttato( frutti rossi) con note di agrumi, noccioline tostate, bosco e leggeri sentori floreali. Nel finale è lungo e intenso, l'ABV è integrato alla perfezione, migliore del 2006, ma continuo a preferire il 2010.
Review by Joachim Guger
Excellent Agricole, tastes slightly better to me than the 2006. Alcohol perfectly integrated. Intoxicating nose to enjoy. Barrel aging they can anyway perfectly in the French Antilles. I just tasted it with the Neisson 15 Ans Batch #2, it is very similar and equally good.
Review by cigares
A rum of which I had high expectations, yet which did not disappoint. Rodolphe told me it was one of his favorite rums. On the nose, a great sweetness, with fruit (pineapple, banana, passion fruit) and vegetal notes. The attack on the palate is smooth, with a beautiful aromatic palette. Everything's in place, it couldn't be better. Incredibly smooth, given the ABV. The finish is long and delicate, with a noble bitterness. A rum that ticks all the boxes. In direct comparison with the 2010, it seems fresher, with more fruit and flowers, but the finish is a little less long and complex.
Review by Rodolphe
I'm under the spell of the nose! Sumptuous, one could spend hours on it. On the palate, pepper and nutmeg, I'd say, as usual with agricultural wines. But citrus, yellow fruit and vanilla are not far off... If I were as hooked on the palate as on the nose, it would be 95! Excellent, for the moment the best agricole I've tasted. Thank you DrDjango!
Review by RumTaTa
Second tasting: the alcohol is a little superficial but still an excellent rum, rating unchanged. Wow, this is once an intense column still rum! Nuts, spicy and fruity and sweetness associated with the fruit on the nose. And unmistakably Agricole! On the palate a lot of wood / barrel and bitter but still balanced. I'm not a big Agricole fan (so far) but I like this one from the start and it's one of my top 3 Agricole rums. Unfortunately, no longer readily available.
