Rhum J.M 2002

For curious explorers into agricole, this 10-year unsweetened Rhum J.M (46.3%) brings spicy vanilla, citrus freshness and agricole earthiness with noticeable oak and a firm bitter twist on the finish. Best as a focused sipper.

The community says
  • Complex nose
  • Dry, unsweetened profile
  • But: Marked bitterness

The look inside the bottle

How does Rhum J.M 2002 taste?

Summarized by AI from 20 community reviews.

Serious agricole with spicy, bitter twist Highly regarded agricole with spicy vanilla, fruit and fresh cane notes. Well-aged character and engaging nose; some find the bitterness and alcohol integration a touch rough but overall recommend it.

Perfect for

Agricole fans who like dry, characterful rums with spice, citrus and a bit of tannic bite rather than sweetness.

Less suitable for

Those wanting sweet, smooth sippers or who are sensitive to bitterness and noticeable alcohol presence.

Very pleasant nose - spicy and intense. The alcohol is not ideally integrated on the palate. Slight bitterness on the finish. All in all, a recommendable Agricole - but one that lacks finesse.

Not a bad agricole, but a bit bitter on the finish.

Great nose: spicy, fruity, sweet. On the palate barrel, vanilla, pepper, fruit and nutmeg. Finish a distinctive bitterness, just still within limits. The details here are wrong: 10/2002-11/10/2012 Bottle No. 07209

Rhum J.M 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 250 Rums

Rhum J.M is Martinique's oldest surviving distillery, tucked into a lush volcanic valley in Macouba on the northern slopes of Mount Pelee. It is the only producer on the island that makes its rum entirely from its own cane, milled within an hour of cutting, and its brown-sugar signature has made J.M one of the most beloved agricole names with collectors.
