Pére Labat 8-Year

Tres bon rhum tout en douceur et complexite.un nez doux qui est confirme en bouche.un regal a essayer.on a goute a la distillerie.bonnes explcations et visite courte mais sympa et brochure pardaite.que du bon sur place.....note 8.5

Puissance sur l'attaque et persistance d'une bonne longueur pour ce rhum plutôt sec

Not a great fan of agricol rum, but this one is really a good one, really loved it

That dirty (in a good way) Pere Labat style works perfect with age. The 8 year presents a lot of green fruits. But not as much as the 2004 and 1997 which are not on here but I would give a 10 for sure!

This rhum from the Poisson distillery in Marie Galante/Guadeloupe is named after the Dominican monk Père Labat (Jean-Babtiste Labat) active in a lots of areas all over the Antilles.
I think it’s maybe a little too expensive normally, but I found it to a 1/3 of the normal price which makes it very pricewhorty for me.
It’s a very good and complex Rhum. The only thing that hold down my rating is the nose which has similarities with bad cognac. The palate and the long afterburn tastes quite fantastic. You can recognise spices, fruits, wood, mints, anise, florals, etc

Bought a bottle of Pere Labat 8y while vacationing in Guadeloupe. Pretty nice and high end bottle and label design. Strong oak over powering dry Rhum Agricole flavors like grass and floral notes. Strong burn due to being such a dry Rhum. For Rhum Agricole lovers, add 2 points to my score.

nevim proc tu neni, ale je to zajimavoyt ktera voni ovocne a prijemne a chutna vyborne az ostreji ale nepali..

I would wish to buy the destilery. This is all time favourite.

un rhum puissant, très boisé.

L'étiquette a changé mais toujours pas de boîte.

Un rhum agricole, vieilli en fut de chêne. Il faut laisser passer le feu de l'alcool pour apprécier son gout fruité et légèrement mentholé avec une bonne longueur.
Pour ceux qui aiment les rhums un peu sucrés (comme moi), vous serez déçu mais pour ceux qui aiment les rhums plus secs alors vous trouverez votre bonheur.
Par contre, à ce prix, un effort aurait pu être fait sur la packaging...
