Christian de Montaguère Trois Rivières Private Vintage

Agricole drinkers who want an old, powerful Martinique rhum will feel at home here. It's woody and elegant with pepper, spice, some tobacco, and a bit of red or candied fruit underneath, finishing long with a light salty-mineral edge. Nearly everyone says the same thing: give it time in the glass. Straight from the pour at 55% it drinks tight and hot.

The community says
  • Elegant oak and spice
  • Long peppery-salty finish
  • But: Needs long airing

Old, woody agricole that needs air Most tasters rate it highly — a powerful, well-balanced 15-year agricole with wood, pepper and a salty finish. The near-universal catch: it needs real air time to open up.

Another superb example of what agricoles can offer at their best. A very elegant woodiness that serves as a framework for fruity aromas. Freshness, notes of tobacco. On the palate, it’s dark but not too much. The wood doesn’t overpower everything. Some walnut. Spices. Long finish as desired with a nice bitterness. Very cool.

5.9/10

Very sharp and spicy palate, with that quite typical Trois Rivières woodiness that I find hard to appreciate, a bit damp and vegetal/floral. But it's well done and the notes contrast interestingly between warm and fresh.

A very successful rum. You find a very indulgent cane. This indulgence spreads over the length.
