Trois Rivieres 5-Year

I prefer thé rond! They are a little sweeter! Not So tasty! A bit disapointed!

Not much of an agricole drinker, but this one is closer to my style of runs, like Plantation. Slight grassy note.

Eye: Light brown/golden.
Nose: Woden sweetness, sugar & caramel.
Mouth: Sharp, whisky-barrel, low on sugar, sharp.
- This was not my cup of .... rum....
- May work in a drink.

Cognac og banan agtig smag. Lidt sprittet eftersmag.

Duft: bliver lidt overrasket over at denne rom ikke dufter af cognac. Jeg bliver mødt af karamel og banan.
Smag: typisk cognac med et strejf af banan. Meget sprittet

You cant make a mistake with rhums from Trois Rivieres

My first entry into Rhum Agricole and am not disappointed. Aged for a minimum of 5 years am impressed how smooth this is and the amount of complexity it brings.

It has a lovely golden color. Wonderful aroma with hints of orange peel, tobacco, dried fruit and am getting a hint of a brandy/cognac note with an underlying sweetness.
Tastes surprisingly smooth with an oiliness that covers your palate. Fruit and light spices again, a hint of treacle. A long dry finish with light oak spiciness that makes you wanting for more.

Am enjoying this very much. Would very much appeal to the Whisky drinkers.

И снова очередной качественный ром от Труа Ривьер! Да, он не такой отесанный как его старшие братья. Да, не такой глубокий и проникновенный. Но все равно, даже за 5 лет эти ребята сумели сделать очень приятный и питкий агриколь без каких-либо провалов, который не надо ни куда добавлять и ни чем разбавлять!

Not so complex taste, alcool and flavor keep away each other, likely because of its low aging. All in all, an interesting starting point

Has a sweet smell and no initial alcohol taste.

Slightly weak initially but then wood develops. A deep sweet aftertaste that is reminiscent of brandy.

I was. tempted to buy this after my taster but didn't think it justified the £60 price tag.
