Bought some samples of Montebello Blanc from Rhum Attitude.
This one is the first Cuvée Bolokos, vintage 2018.
The cane is from R 579 is hand harvested and called red or purple cane. It was rested for 12 months and regular stirred to be more aromatic.
The name “The Bolokos” comes from the Guadeloupean punk band "The Bolokos" and their song "White Rum" which was filmed in the distillery.
It’s a limited edition of just 943 bottles.
The aromas is dry, fruity, flowery and tangy with hints of liqourice but the aromas ain’t especially strong.
The palate and the quite long finish is in the opposite to the aromas very powerful but round at the same time. The aromas comes back but this time it’s hard to find them because of the high ABV.
Overall a great Agricole, but the ABV overpowers the taste a little bit too much.

Crémosité et puissance, mais sans jamais agresser le palais. Le meilleur brut d'alambic d'entre tous les agricoles, toute origine confondue !
