La Favorite La Flibuste Old Cuvee Speciale 1977
Collectors chasing old Martinique agricole are the ones hunting this down — a 1977 distillate given 33 years in oak, and it drinks nothing like a young rhum. Expect prune and dense wood on the nose, rancio and walnut, then a menthol-tinged palate with cinnamon and clove. One taster called it a bridge between aged molasses rums and aged agricole. The finish just won't quit, even at a gentle 40%.
The community says- Rancio and prune depth
- Very long finish
- But: Rare, hard to find

Aggregated from 11 community reviews.
Deep, oaky old Martinique agricole for sipping Members treat this as a rare, contemplative pour — full-bodied despite the low proof, with prune, oak and a finish that lingers. The catch is scarcity: distillery-only and hard to find.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This rum you will have to buy at the destillery i was told by the over of this bottle. Very expensive but also a very good rum. The oak is very prominent from nose to finish without being too dominant. Fruity and lots of wonderful spices. I think I sensed some cardamom but I'm not entirely sure. Wonderful rum but out of my price range.
Review by cigares
Un rhum dégusté au WLP. Un nez très dense et concentré de pruneaux et de bois avc des fruits et du végétal en arrière-plan. Une bouche mentholée avec pas mal de profondeur. Une finale très longue. Un rhum d’exception, une sorte de passerelle entre les rhums de mélasse et les agricoles vieillis.
Review by Johannes
Schön rund, ausgewogen, voller Körper trotz der wenigen Prozente.
Review by Djehey
Nez magnifique, intense sans être écœurant ou trop sur l'alcool. Bouche tout en élégance. Pas forcément intense mais on ne sais pas trop quand elle finit...
Review by Adrien B
Nez maderisé noix, concentré, rancio, cuir animal. Bouche puissant caramel fin, fruit sec assez léger, épice cannelle, clou de girofle, finale tombe d'un étage mais reste longtemps, final ereste assez caramel Super nez
