Montebello Cuvée the Bolokos Édition Océ Cheapfret 2019
At 77.7% you'd expect a wall of heat, and the surprise here is how well the alcohol sits — sharp but not aggressive. It's a raw column-still Guadeloupe agricole: fresh-cut cane, citrus, and a strong mineral, earthy streak that a few tasters found downright metallic. Let it rest and the cane opens up, with licorice and mint in the empty glass. Interesting more than easy.

#4211 This one needs to rest before revealing a nice intense profile. Very fresh and lightly fruity with natural Agricole notes. The empty glass is nice and has some licorice and minty notes.

Tested blind in the 2022 advent calendar, and luckily! Nice nose, fresh cane, quite familiar. On the palate it hits hard (blind) and tastes very earthy, even after resting. Good length, earth that finally opens a bit on the cane. Not "good" even if interesting for its peculiarity. I’m glad to know it but wouldn’t buy it for more than 60 bucks, so not at all! And the last batch, number 4, will it finally come out? It will be snatched up like the iPhone 48...
Review by Benoit Mahe
The nose is quite farmy. You can feel the agricultural character. The palate is surprising (metallic and mineral). It lacks fruit (although you can sense a bit of lemon) and indulgence. It's not really my thing. However, you have to admit the alcohol is very well integrated. Not an easy rum for me to rate: an interesting experience but not really successful.
Review by Timo Groeger
La Route des Rhums Advent Calendar 2022 No. 4. Here a very high-proof Agricole with an ABV of 77.7%. Nose is very fruity and fresh, citrus fruits and Agricole are recognizable. On the palate also Agricole and fruits. Alcohol surprisingly well integrated.
Review by Fabrice Rouanet
Dégustation du batch #2 High ester de qualité malgré un goût métallique dérangeant. Un jus forcément très puissant en alcool, sec, végétal et épicé, il est est très ouvert au nez et en bouche, au final très aromatiques. La finale, certes agressive, permet aux notes fruités de s’exprimer sur la longueur. Belle découverte
Review by laudhar
First experience with a column still brut. Quite satisfying because I expected to feel a more aggressive alcohol.
