8.0/10

A very good unaged rum agricole. Strong grassy, lemony and floral notes greet you. Then it is very dry, slightly grassy in taste with a light pepper finish. Amazingly mild in taste.

8.0/10

the comparison to the HSE 50 he wins for me. you can consider him as a yardstick for other white Agricoles, primarily in the Ti Punch of course, because they are produced anyway mostly.if you do not know which rhum it should be you can do nothing wrong here.in PLV unbeatable.

Canne a sucre, végétal, poivre. Très bonne base pour des rhums arrangés ou même en ti punch

7.5/10

In summary it’s a rustic, dry, powerful, intense and balanced Agricole Blanc. I’ve also tested it in a Ti Punch and it was great. The nose is fruity, spicy and floral. On the palate it’s a little bit rustic and the aromas from the nose just explodes in the mouth.

7.5/10

A white rum with a pleasant drinking strength. The nose consists of floral sugar cane and citrus. Peppery spicy in the mouth, but still easy to drink. Citrus and grass lingers long, but the rum is a bit thin overall.

Palate Warm, intense, fruits, olive, light salt, light citrus, light grass, lightly sweet, sugarcane, spice. Finish Long and warm, oily, olive, light salt, citrus, light vegetal, sugarcane.
