Bologne XO 6-Year

I had the opportunity to taste this rum several months ago and I was very disappointed. After checking with friends, they were all as disappointed as I was. I thought for a moment that the bottle had a problem. This weekend, I gave this rum a chance to show me what it really was and I re-tasted it. The color oscillates from copper to amber. On the nose there are notes of citrus and honey. It is very elegant and progressively releases sugar cane plant notes and a relatively discreet woodland. On the palate are notes of gingerbread, toast with a nice finish on spices, cinnamon. It is relatively tannic but it remains very pleasant. I really think that the bottle before taste had a conservation problem because this rum is very well done but could be more complex for me.

This agricole is very smooth with nice notes. I’m not finished with it yet, but I can really recommend it.
———————————————
Now I’m finished with it and I will rate it 8+. The aroma is a little weak, but the taste and afterburn is 👍.

Full flavor palette and nice color to this agricolle rhum
Also classy bottle and box design

Edit: still agree with the good taste but you beter dont leave this bottle to long when open... mine turned after 6 months, never had that before with any of my rums
