Aroma visualization from community tastings
Clément 1976
Sip this one neat and give it air — the nose is shy at first, then opens into oak, honey, spice and canned peach. What surprises most people is the smoke: several tasters compare it to an old peated whisky, with tobacco, leather and walnut on a long finish. Very soft for its age, though a couple wished for a touch more strength.
The community says- Elegant and complex
- Smoky whisky-like depth

How does Clément 1976 taste?
Aggregated from 47 community reviews.
Elegant old agricole, smoky and cognac-like Loved as an elegant, cognac-like vintage agricole full of smoke, wood and peach. Most gripe: a bit thin and light, and several wanted higher ABV to carry it.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
This one arrived this morning from France and I am already at number two of this nice rum. The nose is nice and typical Agricole with fruits and spices. A slight wood, floral, spice and sugarcane touch to it. The palate is complex and slightly dry with a lot of fruits. There is a sweet note with an earthy, floral and pepper touch to it. Smoky oak also joins in the consecutive sips. The finish is long and lightly sweet with fruits and caramel and in the back some wood. The cognac casks they were finished in is there from the nose to the finish.

Normaal geen Agricole fan maar dit heeft me overtuigd. Neus, mond en afdronk feest!
Review by John Coffey
Beautiful work. Very elegant indeed... The nose is relatively timid and needs aeration... But on the palate it's very vegetal and fresh... A touch of vanilla, honey and yellow fruit... The finish is a little on the light side, but it's still a fine product... A few degrees more and you've got a monster!
Review by Rumclub Latvia
Amazing juice. Very soft and elegant. Grassy, soft tropical fruits. French oak. spices, muscat, minerals. Remind really good cognac. Very elegant and fragrant.
Review by Joachim Guger
Ein sehr warmes, weiches Bouquet. Holz, Honig, viel Würze und etwas Früchte. Schön geschmolzen. Im Mund geht es ähnlich weiter. Beim Abgang schön pfeffrig (eine richtig gute Pfeffersorte!😅). Übrig bleibt ein schöner Karamell-Holz-Schleier. Sehr gut, sehr süffig. Eindeutig anders als heutige Agricoles.🧐
Review by Jakob
Elegant Agricole with fruity aromas alongside the classic nut and nougat notes. Great release.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A very old rum that has become much smoother over the years. Shy on the nose at first, we find the typical woody, spicy and vanilla notes, accompanied after aeration by sugar cane, a touch of honey, peach and freshness. Very smooth on the palate, there are more smoky, vegetal notes, with hints of dried fruit, oak and cognac. The finish is moderately long and quite subtle, with the same spicy, caramelized, fruity and smoky notes. An elaborate, aged and elegant old rum, which could have been even better with a higher alcohol content.
Review by Yundi
Very pleasant, so much canned peach and apricot, with slight chocolate and floral notes. Shame it is too thin and abit too sweet to my taste. But will definitely be a pleasant dram for any people
Review by mto75
First impression on the nose: old oak barrel, tannic acid, then more fruity notes, but also exotic notes such as cinnamon bark and green peppers. Toasted barrel/peated notes on the palate, green vegetables, caramelized sugar. I had somehow expected more, but perhaps the bottle has been open too long...
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
A great vintage agricole! Lots of wood, light caramel notes, butter cookies, roasted aromas and some mango. Overall also quite bitter and tannic. Great age and the "low" alcohol content is just right. Overall a little too much wood for my taste but still very elegant, like an old cognac!
