Attention ce rhum affiche quand même 70 degrés alors personnellement je le bois après un petit tour au congélateur. Le nez est magnifique, beaucoup de fraîcheur et d'agrumes, on dirait un ti-punch déjà préparé. On a également un côté végétal et on devine la fibre de la canne fraîche.
En bouche c'est rond au départ grâce au refroidissement au congélateur et puis ça explose dans tous les sens, on sent le citron, le poivre, les fruits exotiques... On peut dire que c'est un rhum à sensations fortes, la bouche reste imprégnée pendant de longues minutes.
A déguster avec modération car personnellement ça me brûle quand même un peu l'estomac quand j'en abuse.
Im Glas klar wie ein Kristall.
In der Nase schon ziemlich heftig, die 70% treiben Einem fast die Tränen in die Augen. Dahinter eröffnet sich eine Welt voller Düfte, Zuckerrohr, frisch geschnittenem Gras, frisch gepflückten Blumen, Sonne und Lebensfreude.
Im Gaumen, hatte ich noch nie so einen "milden" high proof. Geschmeidig und elegant werden die Geschmacksknospen mit frischen Aromen verwöhnt. Gras, Kräuter, Zuckerrohr, frische Früchte, Zitronen Zeste, Gewürze und eine Priese Meeresluft. Vorsicht, habe einen Tropfen verschüttet und der Linoleum auf meinem Tisch hat sich aufgelöst.
Im Abgang sehr lang und würzig, Früchte und Kräuter kleben lange auf der Zunge.
Ein Muss für jeden Liebhaber solcher Meisterwerke. Perfekter Rhum für 'Ti Punch !
Clear in the glass like a crystal.
In the nose already quite violently, the 70% drive one nearly the tears into the eyes. Behind it opens a world full of fragrances, sugar cane, freshly cut grass, freshly picked flowers, sun and joie de vivre.
On the palate, I've never had such a "mild" high proof. Smooth and elegant, the taste buds are pampered with fresh aromas. Grass, herbs, sugar cane, fresh fruit, lemon zest, spices and a pinch of sea air. Careful, I spilled a drop and the linoleum on my table has dissolved.
In the finish very long and spicy, fruits and herbs stick long on the tongue.
A must for every lover of such masterpieces. Perfect Rhum for 'Ti Punch !
Bought it from the distillery when visiting Martinique about 5 years ago and the Lady from the distillery shop said drink it like Vodka. so put it in the freezer and then drinking. I must say that My face from the first drams was quite like a baby biting into a lemon.
It is very strong but tasteful and cold.
Don’t dink it straight unless you have Russian blood. I found it very nicely paired in rum cocktails.
I did leave the bottle at my mother when I came back to the UK, and guess what she used it to make cakes with it! couple months later that bottle won a gold medal at world spirits brussels and the price tripled... I am writing with tears in my eye!
I'm still relatively new to unaged agricole, so take this review with a grain of salt. I was hoping it would be a bit more "in your face" type of rum, but so far it isn't. With a little water added to bring the ABV down to a more sippable level, it opens up and has a nice flavor profile with the grassy and earthy notes. The longer it lingers on the palate the better it gets, its got a lot going on, but its not super intense.
140 proof and super spicy/peppery. This is fun stuff, but must be respected. Definitely takes a minute or two to acclimate at full strength. Once done, the spice and citrus notes take over. Great mouth feel and neverending finish.
With ample water (recommended), all of the flavors develop further; pepper, lemon, lime, salty, sweetness, grapefruit, and still some heat. Some smokiness in the background. This reminds me of Clairin, but to 11.
Excellent distillate and def worth the money considering the quality and the fact that it is a liter bottle.
Tasted at Hot Joy in San Antonio. Clear. Crisp. Incredible. Knock your socks off bread dough. Biscuits right out of the oven. Slight boiled turnip aroma. Crazy hot and painful. After a few drops of water, I get fromage flavors. Is that even possible? Still crazy hot. Needles on the tongue. Not for the faint, but definitely for me.
Tasted 2/19/23 just after Cornelius adjourned the bar at Hot Joy.
Traditional agricol nose but ummmm YES the flavor is amazing. It's like drinking a load of sour dough bread that has been sitting in 86 degree sunshine in a clover meadow ☘️☘️
Nesson 70
Nosing
Oranges , pineapple, acetone , nail polish olives
Tasting
Lime , caracalla notes , tastes like a cipriani in a glass ,
Pour moi l'un des meilleurs blancs. Très parfumé. Délicieux en ti punch. (trop fort pour moi pour être bu pur)

This is a decent rum, and reminds me a lot of the 50%abv Neisson Rhum Agricole Blanc, only much stronger at 70%abv.
I slightly prefer the Agricole Blanc, as I believe it has a little more cane flavor to it, though these are close.
The L'Espirit smells and tastes of a classic agricole rum, with sugarcane, pepper, and a light hint of lemon. Very strong at 70%, this is not a rum for beginners. If you like agricole rums, you'll probably enjoy this more than I do, as I tend to prefer the molasses rums.
