Very beautiful rum. It’s an aged rhum agricole so its sweetness is never so prominent. It’s very oaky in both nose and mouth with a bourbon like character that should please whisky drinkers. You can still feel the typical sugar cane taste of rhum agricole, but the aging process in bourbon barrels makes it less aggressive. It also has a sort of vanilla sweetness that makes this one an accessible rhum agricole, even to those who dislike the grassy taste of the younger ones. A fruity taste is also present, especially in the spicy and warm aftertaste. Surely a top quality and highly recommended martinican rhum agricole, my favourite of its kind

The JM Rhum Agricole XO from Martinique was produced in column style and was allowed to store in Ex Bourbon barrels for at least 10 years. The Rhum, which has won several gold medals, is bottled with a pleasant 45% alcohol. The Rhum comes in a green bottle which looks classy and valuable overall.

The dark brown rhum is wonderfully spicy in the nose. Grassy fresh, many aromas come to the fore. Lime, vanilla, baking spices, some mint, but also fruit are clearly recognizable. Absolutely fantastic. On the palate, the rhum is never sharp. The alcohol perfectly carries the aromas. Floral notes, bourbon and some burnt caramel harmonize wonderful. The sweetness is subtle but never in the foreground. The rhum is rather spicy. But never bitter. Full-bodied, the aromas remain standing for a very long time and the rhum remains surprisingly long with a clear taste profile in the mouth.

The JM XO is absolutely top class and a great Agricole. The 45% is on point and the JM scratches the 10 becauseyou get it under 50Euros. I can only recomand this rhum. Also very well suited to enter the world of Agricoles.

Der JM Rhum Agricole XO aus Martinique wurde im Column Stil hergestellt und durfte mindestens 10 Jahre in Ex Bourbon Fässern lagern. Der mehrfach mit Gold Medaillen ausgezeichnete Rhum wird mit angenehmen 45% Alkohol abgefüllt. Der Rhum kommt in einer grünen Flasche, welche insgesamt edel und wertig aussieht.

Der dunkel braune Rhum ist in der Nase herrlich würzig. Grasig frisch kommen viele Aromen zur Geltung. Limette, Vanille, Backgewürze, etwas Minze, aber auch Frucht sind deutlich erkennbar. Absolut fantastisch. Am Gaumen ist der Rhum nie scharf. Der Alkohol trägt wunderbar die Aromen. Florale Noten, Bourbon und etwas gebranntes Karamel sind wunderbar am harmonieren. Die Süße ist dezent aber nie im Vordergrund. Der Rhum is eher würzig. Aber nie bitter. Vollmundig bleiben die Aromen sehr lange stehen und der Rhum bleibt überraschend lange mit einem deutlichen Geschmacksprofil im Mund erhalten.

Der JM XO ist absolute Spitzenklasse und ein toller Agricole. Die 45% sind hier genau richtig und der JM kratz an der 10 da er auch noch für unter 50Euro zu haben ist. Ich kann den Rhum nur empfehlen. Auch sehr gut geeignet um in die Welt des Agricoles einzusteigen.

Out the door for .49 shy of $70 this bottle sits in a lofty position. Options a plenty around this price point but was extremely pleased with my choice.
It's refined focused and to the point. A recognizable quality is embedded into each sniff and sip and it's hard to put down. Bottled at a generous 45% a little acclamation happens thus so the profiles are numerous. It's the Bees Knees if....
You like oak bourbon and dry!
You may have buyers remorse if you like sweet sugary molasses.

Searching for something to grab and store for the second quarantine, i thought about trying something different. Noticed this brand being mentioned under "no sugar added"; check! Fatrumpirate rates it 5 stars; check! It being a genuine extra old (french style); check! Result = instabuy. Obviously, i immediately sank in, right now at the very moment that i am typing. The smell is heavy but sensational, even though i cannot describe or decode. The texture is smooth, the burn almost nonexistent, the taste is grassy, reminding me of my herbal tinctures but way better, the aftertaste is like chewing herbs and the lingering grassy sensation was extremely welcome... It's as if you took a sip out of a herbal tea, after some time passes from the moment you gulped. This stuff is lovely, even though expensive. And the total absence of sugar, makes it a great, natural treat!

Nez: légèrement fumé, rappelle un peu le whisky
Bouche : assez long et plutôt doux pour un rhum agricole (sûrement du à l'âge) Assez boisé.
On retrouve les caractéristiques d'un rhum agricole mais adoucies.

Final long et agréable, on retrouve un peu le raisin sec.

The JM XO agricole rhum from Martinique is one of my favorite agricole rhums and also one of the bests of the island.
JM dark rhums are very strong but very floral in their taste and this one is a real experience for anybody who try it out.

Loads of tropical fruits and flowers on the nose: mango, papaya, orange, honeysuckle, peach, jasmin and wood shavings.

The palate is dry and sweet, with hay, grass, oak, cedar, tobacco, honey, raisins and assorted nuts.

The finish is nutty and long, with a distinct grassy aftertaste typical for Agricole.

Amazing stuff.

Nous avons eu la chance de le déguster sur place.
Au nez il semble rond et laisse présager de la douceur. On sent la vanille et le caramel.
En bouche, c'est rond et cela tient ses promesses
Pas sucré mais juste ce qu'il faut de douceur.
On sent les fruits cuits
A déguster.

One of my favourite rums. Very spicy but in equilibrium with the fruit tastes.
Meravigioso!

I love this rhum, and find it to be a singular experience. A fresh sugarcane note mixed with wood and ash is what I experience here, and it is wonderful, but also pungent and intense. It's an amazing rhum, but not something I'd sip on every day, or keep around as my only option. I like drinking it alongside (alternating) a more traditional style rum. The contrast is always enjoyable. This is a must try, though, and truly special.
