Martinique | Agricole | 43% ABV | Column Still (1-4) Distilled
Sort by: Popularity | Newest | Oldest | Rating
I'm not sure if my rating is on the right place here, because my bottle looks different from the main photo above. Unfortunately I couldn't find my bottle. But it's also a 7 year old Saint James with 43 % ABV, but not a "Reserve Privee".
Nose : wood ! A little vanilla and also caramel in the back
Palate : the barrel is in front, but also a little sweetness in the back. Not unpleasant on my tongue. The 43% ensure a peppery spiciness. Some seconds later a little smoke joins in. Hmm, a whiskey note spreads. More and more. I'm not an expert on whisky but I can remember the few moments when I tasted a whisky. And this reminds me of that.
After a little while a little fruitness of some orange notes creep onto the tongue.
Finish : medium. The peppery spiciness on the tongue remains. Unfortunately not more.
Conclusion : that was my first Agricole. So I don't know if this is the typical taste of an Agricole. But for me it's to much on the whisky side and to less on the rum side. That's why I call it the "Whiskum" in the title. Not a bad whisky and not a bad taste, but not a typical rum taste. And I wanted to drink a rum. That's the reason why my rating is only a 6. But a good 6 all in all.
Au premier nez c est le boisé et la canne qui se font principalement sentir.
En bouche le boisé reste très présent ce qui pour moi est un marqueur très fort des Saint-James. Le fruits à coque prennent la relève suivi d arômes particulièrement fumé. La finale assez longue se prolonge sur la canne fraîche.
Not bad for an agricole rum. Quite warming. Better at room temp than over ice.
Ok, utan att sticka ut. Len med lätt sötma & krydda.
It is the special niche of rums, that I am slowly getting my interest for. It’s whiskey-rums. Tastes like petrol, wood and tires. Not a bad one.
When people here the word agricole they often associate it with dry or even harsh rums, but that is a misconception and this brand of rum is a perfect example of the more rounded and balanced agricoles.
Nose: Vanilla, pine and burned toast. Very earthy and juicy in the back.
Taste: Cinnamon, orange and mint blends well with a small hint of funk in the aftertaste.
Overall: If people want to get into agricoles this is one of the best ways to start. It is not overpowering on the "harsher" notes while still bringing the trademark taste of a true agricole.
this is a much better example of the more rounded and balanced agricole that I had prior. Minor details collectively stopped me rating as a 7. Very earthy with a blow back warming my eyes.
Dry, very strong rum which remains as a warming experience. Very pleasant with Cola.
Rum decisamente anonimo. Bouquet "povero" e molto poco persistente.
Quite fruity with white fleshy fruits.
"Not overly spicy but enough of a finish to satisfy."

The smell is grass, lemongrass, licorice and mint candy, hint of wood, the taste is pleasantly smooth and full, starts with honey-like sweetness (without added sugar), lemongrass, deeper tones of wood and cocoa, turns into aftertaste of toffee and licorice, ending with mint candy and lemon grass. I am still trying to get to terms with the Agricole rums, the characteristic grassy undertone in both smell and taste is something I am still learning to love, but this Agricole has style and depth.
