Rhum J.M Série N°2 Calvados Cask Finish 2006
Don't expect a typical agricole here — the Calvados cask pushes apple to the front, more orchard fruit than grassy cane. One Normandy member who grew up with Calvados loved how it married in: apple first, then caramel and coffee, finishing dry on wood and spice. At 41.4% it's light and elegant, an easy pour to open an evening.
- Apple and caramel
- Harmonious finish
- Light, elegant

Aggregated from 22 community reviews.
Apple-forward agricole with a dry Calvados finish Most find it harmonious and pleasantly dry, with apple leading and the Calvados finish blending well. One taster felt the reduction left it too smooth over the wood.

Review by Pascal Gwada
Excellent, certes beaucoup de goût de pomme pour un rhum, mais dans ce genre il est excellent.
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Mhhh, this is delicious! You can easily taste the Calvados finish, but it goes very well with this Agricole, everything is very harmonious. I don't think it needs to have more oomph - just a light, elegant starter to the evening. Thanks, rumdog, for the sample!
Review by Vincent D
Normand d'origine, je connais le Calvados depuis tout petit. J'étais un peu curieux de découvrir le mélange rhum et fût de calva et je ne suis vraiment pas déçu. Le calva prend beaucoup de place mais il se marie vraiment bien, au goût, avec le rhum. Au nez, la pomme emporte tout d'abord. Puis du caramel, du café. En bouche, la pomme démarre et remplit la bouche puis laisse place au sucre, au fruit et au bois. Le tout est plutôt sec. c'est vraiment agréable. Le tout est encore plus prononcé après quelques minutes à température ambiante. Vraiment une belle surprise pour moi.

Très déçu par cette dégustation, un superbe nez très fruité avec un boisé élégant. En bouche la reduction gâche tout, c'est trop lisse sur le bois et les épices. A retenter pour confirmer ou non cette grosse déception.
