Isautier L’Audacieux Rhum Vieux Agricole - Brut de fût (LMDW) 2006
Citrus marmalade, fresh sugarcane and a rack of Christmas spice — nutmeg, ginger, clove, vanilla — and somehow at 72.8% the nose barely stings. The palate is another story: it hits hot and biting, all spice, wood and sharp orange, then settles as the fruit pushes back. A few drops of water pull out caramel and bitter orange. Dry, tense, alive.

The esters are present and the ABV perfectly integrated. I'd go so far as to say surprisingly good! Hints of Christmas spices and, paradoxically, a smooth finish. A wonderful discovery.

Review by cigares
A rum tasted at the WLP. A surprisingly light nose according to the ABV. Very ripe tropical fruit, a slight smokiness and a citrus edge. The sting of alcohol quickly gives way to fruit that develops with discreet wood. The finish is balanced and rather long. A very fine rum.
Review by TheRhumhoe
Isautier flexes its muscles with this extremely powerful brut de fût vintage. The nose, however, shows a rather delicate expression, with beautiful pastry and caramel notes that go well with vesou, fruit and citrus marmalade, and spices (vanilla, nutmeg, chili). A fresh breeze of flowers adds a welcome touch of complexity. The attack on the palate is like an atomic bomb. Very taut, the rum reveals its share of spices (chili, ginger), aromatic herbs and vigorous citrus fruits that want to make their way onto the palate. The result is a dry, powerful rum that blows like a dragon on the palate. The finish lingers like a flame on the palate. The fruit gives way to a spicy woodiness, enhanced by cloves and roasted notes. Then come more vegetal and herbaceous notes with vesuvius, more biting and contrasting with the darker notes. The finish is dry, with tannins also making their presence felt. A very lively, nervous rum that needs time to express itself fully.
Review by jems5
Forest honey citrus gingerbread powerful attack on alcohol but calms down quite quickly! dry finish on the aftertaste of esters, not outstanding aromatically, but interesting.
Review by Vincent D
It's interesting to taste these very high proof rums that explode in aroma. Here, citrus, vanilla and cane. A touch of pastry. Strong, warm and biting on the palate. Woody but not too woody. Explosive!
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Beeindruckende Nase, die trotz der 73% nicht stechend scharf ist. Schöne Aromatik aus Zitrusfrüchten die zu Marmelade verkocht wurden, diversen Gewürzen wie Muskatnuss, Ingwer, Vanille und Piment und Sternanis und natürlich frisches Zuckerrohr. Geschmacklich ist der Alkohol dann definitiv zu spüren, wenn auch nicht zu arg. Etwas chili und Ingwer kommt dazu und dann wieder die Gewürze, das Holz und die Zitrusnoten. Nach etwas Verdünnung auf ca. 60% zeigt sich eine schöne Karamell Note mit scharfem Ingwer und Bitterorange. Aromatisch spannend aber nichts wovon ich eine Flasche bräuchte. Erinnert mich tatsächlich dezent an 2007er Australier im Abgang!
