Review by Carlitooo
Für Agricole ungewöhnlich nussig und der Alkohol ist toll eingebunden. Steigert sich enorm bis zum Abgang, der der absolute Hammer ist
Review by Mr. Stups
Damn good. Nice grassy notes and not too much wood.
Review by Rum N Cigar
Un rhum de très grande qualité démontrant une grande richesse aromatique.
Review by Oliver
HSE at its best. Alcohol perfectly integrated, full-bodied, nice wood influence. An excellent Agricole!
Review by Rene Pfeiffer
Beautifully round and full-bodied Agricole.
Review by Tim
The nose of this rum is insane: it starts with roasted cocoa, coffee, lots of wood, always with a full load of vanilla and ends in dried fruits such as citrus and plum. Absolutely round and intense! Surprisingly mild in the mouth with a nice drinking strength, lots of tart notes and tart fruits. Not quite as round as on the nose. The finish is again very roasty with (hot) spices and sweet pear. The HSE XO already had this crazy coffee note, but this rum is on another level!
Review by Benoit Mahe
A superb agricultural very greedy and balanced. The palate is a bit dry and green but this is well counterbalanced by greedy notes.
Review by Lukas Jäger
A very nice agricole. Perhaps not the most dominant, but for me the most surprising is the aroma of young bananas, which becomes particularly clear after some time in the air. Quite different from the banana we know from Jamaica and co. Otherwise, it is very complex, with dark aromas of wood, nuts and coffee, but also tropical fruits and plums. The 15 years suit this rum so well that I didn't notice the comparatively low alcohol content at first. Really delicious!
Review by Johannes
Very nice nutty note!
Review by Simon Leroux
Interesting traffic jam, but less striking than other versions
Review by Nicolas Pantaloni
Une belle réussite que nous offre HSE! Le degré d'alcool est parfaitement intégré pour laisser passer sur nos papilles les fruits mûrs avec une très belle longueur en bouche !
Review by Joachim Guger
Very warm, full Agricole with lots of almonds. Spicy and dried fruit. Very complex, alcohol super integrated. Good drinking strength. It tingles properly in the mouth and finish. Super Agricole! 😀😀😀😀
Review by Piotr Ignasiak
Nicely round and light. On the nose plums, ripe banana and vanilla. When I taste Agricole i usually pick up this earthy and licerice note, it is also present here, but together with a refreshing minerality. Not fully my cup of tea, but i can appreciate the obvious quality.

Une finale très gourmande sur la cacahuète
