La Favorite Exploration No. 2 2015

Sip it neat and the barrel work does the talking — toasted oak up front, then dried apricot, mango and a roasted, faintly smoky edge on a medium-long finish. One taster loved the "nice roasted/smoky note," and the citrus-and-herbal side keeps it fresh rather than heavy. Balanced and elegant for such a young agricole, though a couple find the palate milder than the nose promises.

8.6/10

A nose of citrus, but also vegetal and quite a bit of complexity. The same complexity is found on the palate, with freshness, spice and fine balance. The finish, marked by the roast, is medium-long and balanced. A very fine, elegant rum.

A bold color for the young age. Very floral nose ... Citrus fruits, orange peel (the sprayed one), wood. Palate Floral and bitter... Again citrus fruits (unripe) ... also here wood . All rather mild. Finish very dry and bitter .

With a medium to long finish this rum comes at you with nice oak and fruits. Coffee, chocolate and licorice are there too. There is a nice roasted/smoky note in there as well which I like. Wonderful Agricole.
