I good representation of the style, but not my favorite thing.
Agricole... Very different color, feel and taste then most other rums. Pale, some solid burn, a bit harsh, heavy notes of oak with smoke/char, almost peppery. The finish was brief. Overall the taste was thin and almost astringent to me.

There's a lot of nice flavor and depth, but overall it's still subtle. It's good for sipping or mixing. Got a little bit of heat

Agricolo giovane ma che rilascia una buona dose di aromi e profondità già dai primi sorsi trasparendo la sua personalità innata

Super heavy oak influence. Amazing how it's overoaked at 4 years. Still retains some Agricole notes.

At The Rum House in NYC. Nice rum list. This JM is good. It has that Agricole earthy nose. Grass and honey. Smooth with nuts and a hint of caramel. Really solid rum. Bite is beautiful and balanced. Finish is short but smooth with som tobacco notes. Good stuff!
Lots of smoke. Lots of wood. Peppery and somewhat spiced. Grassy.

Tasted at Laka Lono on 12/20/18. Aroma of acetone and old lace. Amazingly smooth. Amazeballs. Rich buttery spices. Grassy aroma, tingles the mouth. Earthy, peppery. So good!

To be fair one of my first bottles of rhum Agricole so dont have much to compare it with. The flavor profile was smooth, woody and grassy with a hint of nutmeg and clove. The taste did not linger long. Good starting point for a bottle of its price.

Un des vieux agricoles avec le meilleur rapport qualité prix. Le fut de bourbon est très présent.

Correct agricole

The nose reveals just barely notes of grass, cane juice and caramelised fruit amongst a quite strong presence of oak that is diversified with some clove and ginger.
The palate leaves you wondering for just the split of a second wether it is a Calvados or a cognac brut, but then the unmistakable grassy, sweet cane juice aroma comes through. Quite long aftertaste of spice and oak with hints of caramelised apple.
It is absolutely a decent and “correct” VSOP, but aged agricoles are expensive and this is not for entry level candidates. A friend of mine with a quite well trained palate but little experience with rhum agricole was bewildered as to what he was drinking. If you want to sip an agricole I would try some XO or rare vintages. Or try to make an old fashioned with this one a couple of times, perhaps also a knickerbocker or something, before revisiting it straight.
