Longueteau XO
Sip this one neat — it's an aged Guadeloupe agricole built for slow drinking. The nose leans on dried apricots, figs and a light woodiness; the palate turns spicy and peppery with vanilla and a licorice streak. A few tasters flag a salty, floral edge and a quieter-than-expected nose, but most call it one of the better Longueteau bottlings, with a long, complex finish.
- Long complex finish
- Dried fruit, spice
- Elegant aged agricole

How does Longueteau XO taste?
Aggregated from 20 community reviews.
Aged agricole: dried fruit, pepper, long finish Most reviewers rate it highly as a refined cane-juice agricole: dried fruit, pepper and oak with a long finish. The recurring quibble is a nose that reads a touch weak.

Review by Stefan Persson
One of the best Agricole’s I’ve tasted, but the weak nose makes me stop at 92. The finish is quite long and goes as on the palate. It’s a blend of some of the best vintages from the Longueteau house, that consists of 70% 8yo, 20% 9yo and 10% 10yo Rhum.

Last Sundays tasting was a great one and one of the best ones this year. A great rum at the current price tag.

Un très bon rhum agricole xo avec un gros plus. Excellent
Review by reina
This agricole I bought in Guadeloupe 2018 comes with a really nice bottle with looks great in every home bar. The nose starts with hay and wood and becomes more and more complex with fruits of dried apricots and figs and some minutes later candied sugar and fruits to that still wooden basis. The taste is very spicy and with many herbs. Some seconds later accompanied by fruity notes of dried plum and liquorice. The finish is not too long still with the dried plum and liquorice. A little bit salty too. Everything fits perfectly in this masterpiece of french-caribbean art of distilling.

Agréable, très belle longueur, boisé, vanille, facile, un beau rhum de chez longueteau
Review by Émile Shevek
Al naso avvolgente e delicato con frutti secchi dolci, un po' di legno, spezie, vaniglia delicata, un filo di pelle e qualcosa di vegetale. Al palato ritorna il lato vegetale con più ampiezza insieme a spezie pepate, frutti secchi (datteri e albicocche) e non, un po' di legno da sfondo insieme a una nota dolce/floreale
Review by théo
Un blend agréable, couleur Or avec un nez remarquable les épices fruits séchés et un boisé léger. En bouche on retrouve bien ces références dans un rhum complexe mais léger avec un petit côté salin et fleuri cependant la finale est courte.
