My luck is that I like bourbon. It really is an interesting rum that tastes just like a bourbon. It‘s an okay agricole rum. Would drink again but not every day.
Picked this up for something different. First sip was sweet on the front, honey-esk you could say with some clove and orange peel as it finishes. Not a sweet rum. It is lighter in color than I expected. the more you sip it, the more spices you pick up. Not a spicy hot rum, just a perfume like rum. Whomever compared it to a bourbon, that’s a good pick.
Honiggelbes Bernstein im Glas.
In der Nase ein Bourbon Vanille Eis in frischgepresster Kokosmilch mit tropischen Blüten, Fenchelsamen und Schokoflocken garniert.
Im Gaumen sehr gut ausbalanciert. Aromen wie Vanille, Karamell, Holz, Harz, Gras/Zuckerrohr, Blumen und ein lederner Tabakbeutel halten Händchen und tanzen Ringelreihe. So viele Aromen und keine dominiert, einfach lecker.
Im Abgang am Anfang etwas Holz dazu kommen karamellisierte Blumen die nicht welken wollen.
Ein toller Agricole für Liebhaber und Geniesser. Nicht unbedingt für Süss Rum Lover.
Honey yellow amber in a glass.
In the nose a Bourbon vanilla ice cream in freshly pressed coconut milk garnished with tropical flowers, fennel seeds and chocolate flakes.
Very well balanced on the palate. Aromas of vanilla, caramel, wood, resin, grass/cane, flowers and a leather tobacco pouch hold hands and dance ringlets. So many aromas and none dominant, simply delicious.
In the finish, a little wood at the beginning and caramelised flowers that don't want to wilt.
A great Agricole for lovers and connoisseurs. Not necessarily for sweet rum lovers.
For better or worse, this rum tastes very similar to a bourbon. I happen not to be a big fan of bourbon, but if you are, you will like this rum. And like a bourbon, its flavor has the potential to overpower drinks.
Nose - light oak
Taste - dry, oaky, slight burn, somewhat grassy, cognac or bourbon taste to it.
Ambra.banana, caramel ,fresh fruity,a Little bit bitter and lapposo.
Not quite an 8 but definitely better than 6. This is a fine candidate for a standard rum to represent at a soirée. It does display agricole trademarks such as pepper and grass though it's far more neutral than an XO offering.
Think Haagen Dazs Rum Raisin. Quintessential rum sugar flavor with a bit of bite. Smooth and creamy bottled at a pedestrian 40%. If your planning an upscale shindig and buying only one rum, consider this. Looking for something substantial, spend a little more, your not far from finer sippers.
Different from most rums I've had. Almost a nutty and creamy flavor compared to others that typically are more sweet. Excellent finish.
This is where the best rhum agricoles can't compare to the best of the "proper rums"...if you ask me.
I'd still drink it...maybe even buy it some time again :-)
Rhum vieux d'entrée de gamme de chez Clément, ce "select barrel" est un assemblage d'eaux de vie vieillies dans des fûts de chêne neufs.
Design : bouteille standard de chez Clément, simple mais efficace, le rhum a une belle couleur vieil or.
Nez : riche, sucré, fruité, vanille...très engageant.
Attaque : vigoureuse, boisé (très présent), vanille puis notes d'alcool.
Finale : boisé, léger goût de canne.
On retrouve un côté "bourbon", ce "select barrel" est le pendant du "black sheriff" de chez HSE (distillé au même endroit).
Très agréable à boire.

I have sampled some of the Clement rums and thus far liked them all. This one, however, is more challenging. It is quite different. It is a blend of single-cane agricole rums then matured for three years in used French oak barrels. It is a rich, deep amber colors with a strong yet pleasant aroma. The flavor pulls no punches. There is an immediate pepperiness with an underlying cane juice sweetness (just a hint) along with definitely oak flavor. It has a real burn to it. This is almost like a young bourbon in a way. It has a dry finish. In some of their other agricole rums a noticeable grassiness is present but in this rum it is barely noticeable until the finish and then you can taste it until it fades away.
Hard to consider this a sipping rum. I would prefer it as a mixer but not certain what sort of drink it would do best in. I would hesitate using it in fruit-based cocktails but I wouldn't turn down one made with this rum.
Overall, a complex rum for advanced palates. This is definitely not a rum for novices.
