This Agricole has been finished for 8-12 months in former Whisky barrels and that taste dominates totally in nose and palate. It’s first during the medium long finish that it tastes more like Rhum. Probably a great Rhum for Whisky lovers that want to look into the fantastic world of Agricoles.

Whisky Fair Rhein-Ruhr Düsseldorf April 2026. Und dann gibt es hier am Stand noch einen Agricole, bevor ich gleich noch einen Mega-Caroni testen werde. Ist halt auch sehr rauchig, röstig und holzig dieser nette Agricole.

A rum finished in French whisky barrels. The whisky influence is not overpowering, giving way to a beautiful balance. The nose is marked by notes of peat, smoke and coffee, as well as sweet spices, raisins, menthol and exotic fruits. The whisky only enhances the delicate profile. On the palate, the finish is just right. The peaty, empyreumatic side blends into the background, with notes of tropical fruit, dried fruit, menthol and gingerbread. An impressive rum on the palate, deep and remarkably integrated. On the finish, smoky woodiness vies with exotic fruit and citrus, on a background of cinnamon and a hint of salt. A superb example of rum in whisky finish, expressive, delicate and controlled, which will delight lovers of both spirits.

The whisky cask does not add nicely to this agricole profile, per my taste. While reading consider I'm not a peat fun so my score is consistent with my taste. Sipping is pretty balanced, it's swallowing that the whisky comes into place in an excessive manner that compromises the overall experience. Going backwards, the nose is pretty nice, aged agricole with cacao powder, some earthiness and some impact from the wood, on the palate it's just an average aged agricole rum, not disappointing just not exciting

Needs to rest 15/20 minutes before tasting. Interesting nose, a little less aroma on the palate but richly aromatic. A delicate finish of peat and stewed fruit! A real delight!

Dégusté lors d'un événement de découverte autour des rhums du monde. On arrivait sur la fin de la bouteille. Nez soyeux, délicat et rond (pour un Martiniquais). Une belle sucrosité de canne, des épices de cuisine, du caramel, des agrumes douces. Légère présence maltée. En bouche, alcool très bien intégré, le dram se boit tout seul. Le finish est tout aussi présent qu'au nez, c'est à dire juste ce qu'il faut pour moi. Je trouve une belle vanille, des fruits à coque, toujours ce léger caramel comme en confiture, des épices plus présentent. Tout cela est légèrement torréfié pour un peu plus de complexité. Joli dram et finish. Finale qui s'estompe assez rapidement sur la chaleur des épices et de l'orge maltée lorraine.
