Damoiseau VSOP

42% but feels a little hotter. Starts off with a big nose of oak and leather. Once it breathes the sugars start to come through along with a bit of orange peel and the oak turns to vanilla. Give it more time and a scent of cut grass and pineapple make an appearance.
Sipped it lights the tongue up with heat. It's stringant from the oak, viscous, smokey and sweet. The cane is not missing one bit here and finishes with dark chocolate caramel. It lingers too.
Overall fantastic and does not disappoint on any level.

Well, it's a good rum all around with fine notes of cocoa and wood. Long aftertaste, balanced, a little bit too dry.

Such a different blend of two types of rum .
Charcoal flavours followed by citrus fruits ... Makes a good Manhattan. ..

This aged agricole is fine really well, with strong vanilla and smooth notes instead of the typical woodiness of many aged agricoles

I have the 8yo and the 15yo in the old green bottles and it can’t compete with them of course.
But it’s really not bad at all. I think that the fruitiness dominates especially in nose and afterburn. Besides that it’s oaky and spicy.

4年以上の熟成を加えた商品。ドライフルーツやスパイスの濃密な風味を堪能できる、リーズナブルな価格ながら贅沢な味わいの熟成ラムです。

Это отвратительно! Если дать подышать - аромат становится приятным, шоколад, нотки дуба, что-то еще, приятный в общем. Но вкус... Что это? Нечто среднее между монтажной пеной и носками скалолаза.

Enjoyed two glasses of Damoiseau VSOP. Similar bottle and label design to all other Damoiseau range. Amber golden color. Plenty of alcohol, some vanilla, oak and traditional Agricole grassy notes to the nose and palate when neat sipped. Strong and dry burn at the end. Rhum Agricole lovers can add 2 points to my score.

Sincèrement, j'ai été fortement déçu par ce VSOP. Il n'est pas vraiment meilleur que le VO car ils sont très proche niveau goût. En plus il a un côté bourbon que je n'apprécie pas trop. Déception, il finira dans les cocktails car trop sucré, trop rond.

Après si vous aimez le gout des rhums Damoiseau il vous comblera...

Un autre rhum agricole, je ne suis pas encore un fan de ce type de rhum. Au nez on perçoit les fruits tropicales comme la banane. Un peu épicé et piquant dans la gorge.
