Dillon Rhum Vieux Agricole Hors d‘Âge 2004
Sipped neat, this Martinique agricole gives you grass, honey and vanilla up front with orange, cherry and a light woody edge. Several tasters loved the nose but found the palate falls a bit flat — diluted and a touch too oaky at 43%. A 2004 vintage from the now-closed Dillon still, aged 12 years. Balanced and pleasant, if not the depth some expected.
The community says- Rich fruity nose
- Grass and honey
- Thin, diluted palate

How does Dillon Rhum Vieux Agricole Hors d‘Âge 2004 taste?
Aggregated from 24 community reviews.
Fruity, grassy agricole with a thinner palate Well-liked AOC agricole with a rich, fruity-floral nose. The common catch: the palate reads a little thin and over-reduced, losing some of what the aroma promises.

Review by cigares
A rum tasted at Rhum Fest in 2024. A slight acidity on the nose sets it apart from the others, pleasantly counterbalanced by a slight sweetness. On the palate, yellow fruit and complexity. The acidity reappears pleasantly on the finish.
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
I really love the design of this decanter which matches the content pretty well. Price to quality is very good in my mind and I have ordered a bottle. The nose is fruity with grass, honey, vanilla trailed by tobacco and floral notes. The palate is complex and lightly dry with fruit and wood trailed by honey, grass, vanilla and floral notes. The finish is long and lightly dry with fruit, wood and floral notes.
Review by Fabrice Rouanet
Un nez supérieur à la bouche qui est un peu décevante par un côté réduction trop important, où le rhum perd de sa persistance aromatique. Ça reste tout de même un excellent rhum AOC avec une belle richesse et intensité aromatique.
Review by TheRhumhoe
Un rhum atteint du « syndrome de la jolie carafe ». Le nez est pourtant prometteur avec de belles notes florales, herbacées et du tabac qui se joignent à un fruité légèrement sucré, des épices douces et une influence de cognac. La partie se gâte une fois le rhum en bouche : on a ici un rhum assez plat, dilué et qui perd toute profondeur et complexité. Un peu de fruits secs, d’épices et de bois, du caramel pour arrondir les angles et le tour est joué. La finale, un peu courte, tente de sauver l’ensemble avec quelques notes florales et de canne à sucre qui se mêlent aux fruits, aux épices et aux notes légèrement toastées. Un rhum en deçà des attentes sur le plan aromatique. Malheureusement, le prix est allé à contre-courant et s’en est allé vers les étoiles pour cette cuvée trop timide.
