Depaz Rhum Vieux Millesime 1979
If you like old, dry agricole with the grassy side sanded down by decades in the glass, this 1979 Depaz is your kind of bottle. The nose leans wood, orange, raisin and cinnamon; the palate is nutty nougat, black pepper and dried fruit with a floral, slightly bitter finish. One taster sums it up flatly: "It tastes like old wood." Give it time to open.
The community says- Nougat and pepper
- Intense for 45%
- But: Slightly thin body

Review by Jakob
Braucht nach der Öffnung etwas Zeit im Glas, dann haut er aber voll auf die Zwölf: Grossartiges Agricole-Profil mit Gewürzen, Trockenfrüchten, Nüssen, Schokolade, Holz…ein Gedicht. Sehr eindrücklich, wie dicht die Aromatik hier wirkt.
