Agricole drinkers who chase raw cane and sour citrus will feel at home here. This Guadeloupe white, rested 450 days, is a Velier bottling at a hefty 64%. Expect fresh sugarcane, lime, a floral, almost gourmand nose and a surprisingly oily, medium-dry palate. Several tasters found the long rest made it smoother than you'd expect from the proof, though the flavor itself stays fairly straight.
The community says- Fresh sugarcane nose
- Oily, smooth for 64%
- But: Muted palate for some

Aggregated from 27 community reviews.
Cane-forward agricole white, oily and dry Well-liked as an elegant, cane-forward agricole white. One taster loved the fruit-and-bubblegum nose; a few found the palate more muted and metallic. Great in a daiquiri.

Not really a sipping rum but an interesting brash Agricole. Exquisite nose, fruit and bubblegum, just really like the nose, up there with Mhoba. On the mouth it’s more muted, some metallic and herbal notes, basil and olive. The finish is salty with brine and olive, medium length, and interesting. Dry on the mid half of the mouth, and overall quite an elegant rum. Good daiquiri, the dryness comes through as well

I didn’t take any notes at the Rhum Fest so a more detailed review will follow as soon as I get the chance to sample this rum again in a better context.
Review by Righrum
A nice experiment, the long maturation made this rum way smoother. Nice sip despite high abv (brut de colonne), this rum is really shifted towards vegetal and sour citrus notes. I appreciated this enough to grab a bottle when it's been possible
Review by TheJackDrop
Notes from Whisky Live Paris 2024 - to be reviewed and deepened. More marked and creamy than the 120 days, although it stays in the same line. It’s quite straightforward, no surprises, even though it’s very good.
Review by Benoit Mahe
On the nose you find a greedy cane, full of sugar. The palate is creamy and soft. The finish is quite long and sticky for a white rum.
