Rhum JM VSOP 4-Year

Velmi silný a hrubý rum. Není vůbec mým šálkem kávy. Proto bohužel hodnotím takto subjektivně. Silná alkoholová chuť.

edit s postupem casu velmi dobry rum..nutne se k agricole propit.

Pepper overload is what you get from the Rhum J.M. VSOP. It is super dry, like a cognac, but the pepper smell and taste will hit you straight in the face. If you like Rhum Agricole, add 3 points to the score. If you like sweeter rums, go for at least 50 better rums than this one!

The smell of grass, fresh barrel and varnish.
A lot of bitterness. Nothing remarkable, except for a strong barrel.
It reminds a cognac. I spent a lot of money on this, do not repeat for me if you are looking for a good rum.

After trying the gold version, I was actually hoping for much more from the VSOP.
It started great though, nice dark color, and very very nice sugar cane smell with some notes of Banana (which I think). But then tasting was a complete other story.
The alcohol is quite strong and the burn too present, so you don't really taste the aromas.
Great start but a disappointed end.

Ce rhum est superbe a 22e a la distillerie il est le plus sucre et dur la canne.tres doux beaucoup moins complexe et moins sec que le xo il a pour un 4 ans beaucoup de qualites.si vs aimez les rhums jm et les sucres celui ci est pour vous....note 8.0.

I dont really know what to make of this. I had the opportunity to taste the VSOP and wasn't sure what to make of it. It's has strong afterburn and is a little spice (i quess it's the pepper notes). I was my first agricole rhum, but I didn't have the feeling that I was drinking rum, maybe it's because I'm more used to sweeter rums. I did buy the XO so there will be a 2nd try at agricole rhum.

I donot have much experience with agricoles but this is nice. The nose has many wooden oak tones and licorice. This initial taste is grassy and typical agricole, followed by the alcohol burn which i quite like. Then that fades a bit followed by a peppery taste and the long aftertatse is licorice and some undefined spice

My second aged agricole and so far I'm really liking these. Less sweet than other aged rums and full of character. Would definitely buy this again.

A little over priced for this one. the spice islands come to mind with hints of pepper, nutmeg, mace, coriander. Its tasty but dont think I would invest in another bottle. Might be nice in a holiday coctail.

with a hint of peppermint, soft finish ...........
