Mellow, dessert‑like old agricole For experienced palates exploring old agricoles, this 31‑year Damoiseau is a mellow dessert‑like sipper. RumX members mention dried plum, dark chocolate, caramel, vanilla pudding, mild wood, tea and flowers.
Agricole fans and collectors who enjoy very old, gently sweet, low‑ABV sippers with dried fruit, chocolate and soft oak rather than punchy proof.
Those wanting high‑ester funk, strong agricole grassiness, or cask‑strength power; value hunters may also find this too pricey for regular drinking.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Just got a bottle at a very good discount. One of the perks of being a big private collector. Just did a retaste. The nose is really nice and it's there from pouring it's just tickling your nose from afar. It start off very fruity with orange/lemon dominating. Then descends into wood and smoke. A very nice nose indeed. The palate is surprisingly warm the proof considered, but it is a disappointment because the flavours get mixed up and I think this one would have benefitted from a higher proof. Not as fruity and slightly tannin/tea bitter. The finish is medium long and woody/fruity.

Lovely old agricole
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Toller Vintage aus Guadeloupe mit einer ungewöhnlich intensiven Dörrpflaume, Schokoladen Note. Sehr mild und süßlich gefällig und gefahrlos süffig. Lecker aber bräuchte ich keine Flasche davon. Dennoch eine spannende Gelegenheit!

Weak but tasty. Definitely not sour and little bit sweet
