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

The look inside the bottle
How does Christian de Montaguère Trois Rivières Private Vintage taste?
Summarized by AI from community reviews.
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.

Review by Vincent D
Most helpful positive review
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.

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.
Review by Benoit Mahe
A very successful rum. You find a very indulgent cane. This indulgence spreads over the length.
Review by Émile Shevek
On the nose it is delicate with hints of toasted sugar, cocoa, forest, tobacco and some citrus. On the palate it is initially pungent but almost immediately melts into warm wood/forest, spices and a note of sweetness that makes it full-bodied, all in complete roundness. On the medium-long finish come vegetal, peppery notes, red fruits and a slight roasting on gianduia, what a delight! If left to rest, earthy notes also appear. In the empty glass young and roasted wood. Thanks Simon!
Review by Mando
A very beautiful Martinican. It needs time to breathe. It has style and character. Brilliant!
Review by N’ours
One of the most beautiful successes from Trois Rivière and one of the finest rums I tasted in 2020. Very nice balance, alcohol very well integrated revealing all the notes on the rum. Powerful nose, woody and spicy with some fruit touches. On the palate, an explosion of aromas full of power and subtlety. A beautiful marriage of wood, spices, a bit of pepper, lovely ripe/candied fruits, a mineral note at the end slightly salty. The finish is long with a sweet balance between pepper and salt.

Review by Fabrice Rouanet
Rhum agricole excellent. Le nez et la bouche sont parfaitement équilibrés avec une richesse et profondeur aromatique incroyable. C’est un régal.
