On the nose: fruity, brandy beans, sweetness, caramel, berries, wine gum, herbs and spices, similar to bourbon or rye whiskey or cognac, some nougat.
On the palate: nougat with herbs, mint, sweetness, cognac, caramel, spices, fresh herbs (coriander, parsley), slightly tingling, especially fresh coriander!
In the finish: herbs, some spices, caramel, some dark chocolate.
Overall very extravagant and elegant at the same time.

Am Gaumen: Nougat mit Kräutern, Minze, Süße, Cognac, Karamell, Gewürze, frische Kräuter (Koriander, Petersilie), leicht prickelnd, vor allem frischer Koriander! Im Abgang: Kräuter, etwas Gewürze, Karamell, etwas dunkle Schokolade. Insgesamt sehr extravagant und gleichzeitig elegant.
Visited the Rhum JM distillery while vacationing in Martinique. Self guided distillery tour ended with an open tasting bar. Rhum JM Cognac Cask was priced at EUR 45 per bottle at the distillery. Very nice and sturdy bottle design with a great old school label. Golden color. Traditional super dry Rhum Agricole flavors complemented with plenty of grass and floral notes to the nose and palate. Surprisingly strong burn at the end since its so dry. Rhum Agricole fan boys can easily add 2 points to my score.
This rhum has matured for over 10 years with an added finish in French oak barrels that had previously contained Delamain cognac. Nose: fresh, flowery, tropical fruits, sugar cane, orange peel, some citrus. Palate: short spicy attack immediately followed by toasted oak (not too dominant), cane and fruits. You will experience the typical dryness of rhum agricole. Finish is quite long, light and fruity, gaining in sweetness over time. After some time notes of smoke rise up and (together with the sweet notes) will define the lasting taste.
Part of a double buy from JM, this cognac cask finish allows a extraordinary taste to the old JM rhum. Light color but with a clear smell from Cognac: people who visited Cognac distillery will definetly fond the same aroma. The length on the mouth is typicall from Martinique rhums. Clearly recommanded but hard to find !

Wow 9 out of 10
Until today I did not like any agricole Rhum I tried. And I did not like the 200 EUR Sassafras because the long cognac maturation ruined it for me. Here we have an agricole with a short, less than a year, cognac finish in high quality Delamain(Grande Champagne) butts. The tables completely turned now. I love it! It is diluted to 40,5% but almost as intense as a high quality casc strength rum. It is limited to 800 bottles and the price was 50 EUR for 0,5 l. This money was well spent. I cant expect more from an agricole.
EDIT: Finished the bottle now. Im still amazed. But if there were a casc strength version of this i d rate it higher. Therefore i reconsider my rating from a 10 to a 9 +.
