J. Bally Rhum Blanc
Anyone who lives for Ti Punch will get the most out of this one. It's a straight Martinique blanc — grassy sugarcane, earthy and a little musty, with olive and a floral edge, plus the 50% giving it some freshness. One taster called it a "very solid Martinique blanc, not very expressive," and that's fair: pleasant, clean, but not much fireworks. Several found the aged Bally's more fun neat.
The community says- No off notes
- Clean sugarcane character
- But: Not very expressive

How does J. Bally Rhum Blanc taste?
Aggregated from 19 community reviews.
Grassy, earthy blanc built for Ti Punch A clean, if unshowy, agricole blanc. Most agree it shines in a Ti Punch and stays a bit flat sipped neat — pleasant but nothing to analyze at length.

Review by Tim
Tasted at the GRF23 at the Velier tasting. There are better white agricoles than this one, although unaged rums almost never come close to an aged rum. That's why my rating for white rum stops at around 8/10.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Sehr milder und runder agricole blanc der einen sehr leckeren, süffigen Ti Punch macht. Pur ist er nicht so ganz mein fall! Alles in allem aber jetzt auch nichts mega besonderes, da machen die gereiften Bally's schon mehr Spaß 😋
Review by Frank
After a long time again a clear in the glass. Nose: clear thing. Fruity-fermented, vegetable and fermented sugar cane juice. Although slightly sweet, but then more in the direction of olive with a touch of caraway. The 50% gives some freshness, but in the end it seems rather earthy and musty. 60 The nose continues on the palate: earthy and musty, fresh peat. A somewhat nasty undertone of geranium intrudes. The rum is not sweet, but grassy sugar cane comes through. Not really pretty. 58 Good to try the Ausgsngsstoff, but so really what to do with it I would not know now.
