Damoiseau VSOP 4-Year

Aroma is nice and gentle, with wood and flowers. Taste is woody bittersweet, bit sharp not very complex due to short aging, but not bad. Aftertaste could be longer, but is pleasant with typical agricole tones on palate. Good aged agricole, for fair price (40Eur in Czech Republic)

Jobbat reméltem. Még meg iszom tisztán ,de nekem ebbe kell a jég hogy kivegye az engem bántó alkoholt és a végén jobban kiemelje a kandírozott gyümölcsös lecsengést. De kólával király.

A very fruity smell, sweet, light alcoholic and sharp. The taste is sweet, light flowery and alcoholic, quite nice. The finish is medium long.

Nice dark gold agricole from real sugarcane. Not a long aged rum but gives you the typical French island rum hues. Not for everyone but would make a hell of a good authentic Ruhm Ti punch.

A solid agricole. Subtle floral and grass notes. Very smooth. Decent balance. Nice sugar and coffee notes that stay on the pallet. Oak and tobacco in the background also. Finish is very good but not quite as good as the XO. Very drinkable. Better on ice than neat.

Very aromatic nose with grasy notes.
A light taste with nice aftertaste. I think this is a great agricole, but I could cry because of the dilution.
I would prefer more intensive taste and smell, it's way too light for me with 42%.
I think 55% would be much better.
I see this rhum at 7.5, because of the dilution.
With 55% or cask strength it would get a 9 or even a 10.
Too bad, in the aftertaste this rum shows so much potential. I could Imagine it's beauty at cask strength.

Smell: fermented sugar cane, citrus, grasy notes, earth/barrel, sour smell, pepper
Taste: citrus, watery, vanilla, some paper/grasy notes
Finish: some bitterness, spice, some salt and pepper
Aftertaste: green and sour apples, orange, pepper, floral notes (tasty)

Sweetness: 1/5
Fruits: 1.5/5
Spice: 2/5
Mildness: 3.5/5
Value (35€): 4/5

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
