if you haven´t checked agricole rhum til now, this is a good try. one of the softer agricoles, this is a good idea to start with, although not a cheap one. Over all it tastes very smooth and elegant, rounded notes of fruit, caramel, vanilla and nut.

The Clément rum vieux X.O. hasn't only a nice bottle and packaging, but it's certainly a premium french aged agricole rum!

Nice to drink neat, it isn't too strong and has interesting floral and oak notes!

I remember reading reviews for rums from "rumdood" many years ago when I was starting my first liquor cabinet. His rum reviews prompted me to buy this as a blind purchase (the most expensive bottle in my collection at the time)
To this date it remains in my top 3 rums.

The nose is all sweet sugar cane juice, cinnamon and light nutmeg and florals.

Coloration is light gold, lighter than you would expect for such deep flavor. Almost like grade A light amber maple syrup.

The taste is incredibly rich and fresh for a rum that features such old casks. Amazing! best agricole I have sampled.

I hope one day to be able to purchase this rum again

Nice complex aroma with little noticeable alcohol,fumes. Very smooth & balanced for a 44% abv. Rhum Agricole. Good long finish with some oaky dryness and a hint of sweetness.

As usual with Rhum Agricole if you like the sweeter (with added sugar) kind of rum than this is not for you but those that like whisky and brandy will go nuts over this.

Now then! If you see a bottle of Rhum Clément X.O., buy it without hesitation, or better still let me know and I will gladly pay you twice the amount you have paid with a smile on my face. Usually this would be too classy for a mere novice but this rum has taken my out of the comfort zone.

Notes of plum, pear, grass, lemon?!, burnt toffee, bonfire night in a glass!

The finish is so elegant, just the correct amount of warmth for my taste and leaves you yearning for that next sip, in fact it is so soothing. I wish I really do wish I could find a bottle somewhere. This is verging on a 9.5 a truly world class rum.

After reading all the wonderful things about agricole rum from Martinique I tried to find any local/regional liquor store that carried any. In some places the clerks didn't know what agricole rum is. None of the stores had any such rums.

However this past weekend my wife and I took a little romantic weekend getaway to Panama City Beach, Florida (about a 2-hour drive from home). Whenever I am in someplace out of my region I will check out the liquor stores. In one such shop I noticed the bottle of this sitting on the top shelf behind the counter. I asked the clerk about it and she told me it had been sitting up there for a long, long time and no one showed any interest in it so the owner marked it down. Way down. In order to sell it. Under $100 actually. Definitely was not passing up on such a good deal.

I had read many glowing reviews about this rum and while I was opening the bottle my thoughts went to whether or not this rum would live up to the hype.

It does.

And then some.

This is the first, and thus far, only specified agricole rum in my collection [UPDATE: On a recent trip to New Orleans I purchased more agricole rums including other Clement rums -- reviews hopefully soon.]. It is quite smooth but drier than most in my collection. Much drier. But the complex flavors it has are remarkable. And call me crazy but it seems to be smooth AND have a bite to it at the same time (44% ABV probably explains that). Hard to explain. Since this is make from sugar cane juice rather than molasses the flavor is uniquely different. One source says the rum comes from a combination of "some liquid from the famed 1970, 1976 and 1952 vintages" while another says there are some liquid from four different years. I pick up on a smooth sweetness along with some sharpness from the oak. A little maple syrupiness to it, perhaps?

Definitely a sipping rum. To use it as a mixer would be a cryin' shame.

Tasted neat in a glencairn
Nose: sultanas, dried figs, pear, peach
Palate: bright fruit leading with peaches and mangoes, caramel, cinnamon, some leather and wood trickling in
Finish: medium, with woody notes
Really a great sipper accentuating the distinct aged agricole vibe
