Famille Ricci Quintessence 2021
The theme members keep landing on is the split between nose and palate. It smells fruity and soft — banana, tropical fruit, vanilla, a bit of green apple — then, as one taster puts it, "ça pete" and the Jamaican ester and funk take over, with licorice and black pepper close behind. A big multi-origin blend that shifts constantly; give it time in the glass.
The community says- Sweet fruity nose
- Jamaican ester kick
- Needs time

Review by Morgan Garet
Ce seraot trop long de noté toutes les notes ressenties au cours de la dégustation car au nez eten bouche on sentbie. Les différentes originesun coup pâtissier, un coup sur le solvant puis viennent les fruits puis les épices. Une infinity bottle infiniment GOURMANDE.
Review by Maxime Clr 🇫🇷
Très grosse différence entre le nez et la bouche. Au nez très fruité et doux, beaucoup de fruits tropicaux. Au palais, ça pete et on se prend tout de suite ce côté jamaïcain avec des ester et du funky. Il se passe plein de choses, bel assemblage.
Review by Djehey
A spicy side and a beautiful richness that will make this bottle last and give a lot of pleasure!
Review by John Coffey
Belle réussite tout de même car le pari est osé
Review by Jakob
Interesting mix of molasses and Agricole. The sheer amount of components of the blend seems unusual at first, but the overall picture is quite appealing. May be called a successful experiment, but lacks the final finesse.
Review by L' Art Rhumiste
Très complexe et long, ce rhum a vraiment besoin de temps afin de pouvoir s’exprimer complètement et de profiter de chaque évolution du profil. Les profils jamaïquain et Barbade dominent, mais on arrive à en retrouver d’autres dans un ensemble gourmand, plaisant et bien équilibré.
