Rhum J.M Terroir Volcanique 2021
People curious about agricole but wary of the grassy, vegetal edge tend to land well here. It's a lightly aged J.M built on prunes, oak, vanilla and sugarcane, with peppery spice and a faint smoke. Several tasters call it the most "crowd-pleasing" agricole they've had — easy to sip, a touch sweet, woodier than fruity. Reviews note it opens up with a little water or ice.

Review by Felix Reiber
Surprisingly complex and harmonious for this price range. Fruity, herbal and sweetish tones, which inspire the nose, are enhanced in the mouth by honey, oak and dried fruit. Spice and herbs are present and remain well in the background over the medium-long finish. A very accessible Agricole with unbeatable value for money.
Review by Martin Ekrt
Here the typical agricole aroma already stands out. Only strong for me so that I don't mind it on the contrary. Very nice perfume. Flavour-wise, it's a fruity and again typical agricole. In the finish the agricole flavour leads with nuts. Again, it's only 3 years old like the N.Grove I had a while ago, but it's a completely different rum. I must be in an agricole mood, but I can't help it. This sat nicely with me too. If it was over 50%, it could be a blast. Edit: rounding up slightly, a very good piece

Rancid taste...
Review by tripleB
Nose: light, sweet and fruity. Canned pineapple with a fine sticky note like bourbons. Palate: Pineapple and honey sweetness up front. Then becomes spicier and intensely fruity. Finish: unfortunately short, but sweet and fruity. Conclusion: dangerously drinkable and very good PLV.
Review by epicsune 🇸🇪
Sample no.13 of the 24 days of rum calendar 2022. Fruity, oak barrels and agricole on the nose. Maybe some sweet fruit like apple maybe? Palate is fruity and vegetal, dry and tastes faint of white wine. Agricole is an aquired taste, so far I’ve not fallen for it but this one tastes better than others I’ve tried.
Review by Julien Ries
Une très belle entrée dans le monde du rhum martiniquais avec ce rhum bon marché, mais pourtant d'une complexité folle et d'un superbe équilibre. Le rapport qualité-prix est dingue. Le nez nous accueille avec beaucoup de fruits secs et de vanille, mais surtout cet ADN de la Martinique. Les épices poivrées apportent un bon élan au chêne un peu brûlé. Les arômes empyreumatiques de ce chêne passé à la flamme ramènent des notes de vieux cuir. La bouche est très évolutive. On passe d'une attaque fruitée sur des fruits exotiques secs, à de la vanille, du caramel, puis doucement vers du pain toasté. On perçoit aussi quelques accents de coco, de poivre et de canne à sucre. Je trouve que ce rhum a plus de choses à raconter qu'un Neisson beaucoup plus cher.

Non refined nosing, unpleasant finish, not my taste
Review by Chris2000
Excellent quality/price ratio.very long, fruity finish. The bottle and design are superb, and would make an excellent gift.a little young of course, but at 30euros it's more than worth the triple-priced XO agricoles!
Review by Stefan Persson
Bought this bottle from Wine Palace in Spain and have emptied in Nerja at Costa del Sol. It’s a blend of rum aged for at least 3 years in American oak barrels toasted in two different levels. The nose is sweet, fruity, spicy, woody and floral with scents of honey, prunes, vanilla, oak and leather. At the palate it’s elegant, round, vegetal, fruity, spicy and woody with flavors of grass, passion fruit, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and oak. The finish is medium long, woody and spicy with flavors of leather, cinnamon and nutmeg.

Review by Maxime Clr 🇫🇷
Very vanilla and woody, quite pleasant. Not a great rum but nice to drink as an aperitif!
Review by Solidfunk
Definitely getting a lava flow vibe here. Smoky and some caramel. Light golden pour. A hint of lemon. Pretty fun. Tasted on a flight at Casta's in DC.
Review by Timo Groeger
Doesn't quite meet my taste, but is still quite ok. It has a fruity note on the nose and palate, but for me the alcohol is predominant on the palate, which is not really well integrated and makes for a slightly longer finish.
Review by Unanswered Prayer
upon first tasting, i was perplexed, as it smelled and tasted more similar to bourbon than rum, let alone cane juice rum. however, upon my second tasting, everything opened up. the fruity richness paired with wood smoke and spices, all rounded by this delicate cane sweetness, nuttiness, and buttery decadence. at 43% abv, it provides a surprisingly long finish that pricks at the tongue before opening into an array of bright tropics.
Review by Vincent D
Very woody, agricultural nose. I expected it to be less greedy. In the end, it's very nice. Woody and spicy but fruity, sweet and vanilla. Super accessible. Rather nice.
Review by Hogo Monster
For my first cane juice rum, this one seems like a high bar to set. Get a lot of apple on the palate with a smoky finish. Have made this into a few rum old-fashioneds (go to bitters are tiki bitters, grapefruit, and even tried with lemon once to great effect) and it's wonderful but the best thing to do is sipping neat while looking at the gorgeous bottle. Still need to get Sirop de Canne to try out a proper Ti' Punch.
Review by Rumpalumpa
As usual for Agricole, very herbal, here accompanied by sourdough on the nose. Sour on the palate at first, then smoky wood and nuts. I had hoped to finally make friends with Agricole here, but that didn't happen.
Review by Sully Zamord
Léger fluide ! Il glisse tous seul ! Léger en nez mais en bouche c'est tellement agréable !
