Superbe complexité, superbe rhum !
Review by Dirk Becker
Very complex, incredibly round
Review by Fred Rozier
Alcool très bien intégré, je ne sais pas comment décrire mais à la 1ere gorgée limite un goût « terreux ». Belle longueur et un côté café au lait /moka bref quel délice 😋😋

Superbe agricole très glouglou un bonbon !! Un jolie rhum !
Review by Jonathan Massard
On the nose, lots of candied fruit, citrus/blood orange marmalade, candied apricot, then sweet spices (cinnamon, white pepper, cloves). A lovely sweet cane mixed with subtle woodiness, it's concentrated. This is followed by a touch of brine on the green olive of the ham cake, salty and greedy. A touch of figs too, a toasty/woody edge. On the palate, astonishing, malted barley, on yeast, the sting of alcohol, pleasant, if a little disconcerting. It's powerful, warm, heavy, at which point you can certainly feel the effect of the "copper mist" toasting. The woodiness is present, but very well integrated with the overall flavors of the juice. Now, from the grapes to the alcohol, which evolves towards grandmother's black cherries dipped in eau de vie. Retro-olfaction: light sweet caramel, bitter dark chocolate, dark coffee, roasted hazelnuts and walnuts. Finish: warm candied date, borderline licorice, nutmeg, fine noble wood, returning to dark chocolate. A very fine rhum agricole, almost 15 years old, rustic, powerful yet subtle.
Review by ElReyTristan
Nez explosif et délicieux! Super ouverture avec une aromatique dingue… Banàne flambée, ananas rôti, essence de bois fraîche, vanille, un peu de coco et en fond même des fruits secs, raisins de corinthe sec et petite cerise en eau de vie. En bouche on retrouve presque tous ces arômes de fruits des Caraïbes, pour certains bien rôti et une nuance boisé plus prononcé. Moins de fruits secs et un peu moins d’exubérance et de profondeur. La longueur en bouche est moyenne malheureusement il laisse un tout petit peu sur sa fin. Mais c’est un magnifique produit dont je regrette de ne pas avoir pu dégoter une bouteille complète…
Review by Nicolas Sicilia
Le nez dégage un boisé assez toaste ! J’aime bcp !les fruits sont léger ! En bouche l’alcool est très bien intégré, le bois est présent mais pas trop, de la vanille, du café et une légère acidité à l’entrée en bouche ! La finale est assez fraîche et légère
Review by zabo
Netter Rum, von diesem Profil bzw HSE hatte ich bis jetzt noch nicht viele im Glas. Die Nase ist sehr einladend. Im Geschmack erinnert er mich ein wenig an einen guten Armagnac irgendwie. Da ich meist eher Rums mit höheren Alkoholgehalt mittlerweile bevorzuge, muss ich gestehen, dass dieser mit "nur" 47,6% mir sehr gut gefällt. Toller Rum. Danke Chris2302, der war doch von dir, oder? Glaube dieser Agricole ist viel zu schade ihn als Mixer zu probieren.
Review by Johannes
Beautiful, intense aroma with nut, yeast, wood and light dark fruits.
Review by Morgan Garet
Un nez ultra gourmand sur les fruits compités et le flan vanille. Une bouche légèrement moins gpurmande avec l'arrivée de l'encens, d'un côté vin cuit. Les agrumes apportent une belle fraîcheur qui reste longtemps. Finale longue sur les agrumes les épices et le caramel.
Review by Alex1981
Schöner Agricole, balanciert und komplex. Grassig, Holz, fruchtig. Alkohol ist prominent, aber gut integriert. Gefällt!
Review by Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓
Great Agricole! Not so much on the grassy side, but rather on the woody side, almost earthy and deep. Alcohol very well integrated. Despite the almost unmanageable number of different bottlings, HSE simply has it!
Review by Rowald Sweet Empire
Tasting on a campside in the south of French. Big flavours in the nose. Somewhat acidic. Cherry. Port anf red wine. A bit whisky like too. Red fruits. Nectarine. Bigger than expected with this abv. Taste: very fruity. A bit artificial too. Chartreuse. Groene limonade (Dutch Reine Claude lemonade). Very different than I expected. Weird but nice. Sort of a blind tasting, because no internet here..might be a port cask or something. Challenging dram.
