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
- But: Slightly thin body

How does Clément 1976 taste?
Aggregated from 49 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 Jakob
Elegant Agricole with a fresh hint of tropical fruit and citrus aromas. Classic nut-nougat notes with dark chocolate provide a pleasant sweetness. Great balance, multi-layered, full-bodied. A very good release.
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!
Review by Julien Ries
Le nez est assez discret malgré le temps dans le verre. Il en sort des fragrances fruitées, notamment de la pêche. Mais ce qui ressort surtout, c'est un puissant fumé, tourbé qui nous fait penser à un vieux whisky. C'est très étonnant et on perd un peu ses repères. Il y a aussi du miel, des épices de cuisine, et pas mal de bois, mais un boisé poussiéreux. Il y a un fumé de caramel brûlé aussi derrière. Le tout est assez distingué et très original. En bouche, l'alcool est parfaitement intégré et les gorgées sont d'une grande douceur. Le fumé et cette tourbé sont omniprésents, avec aussi du poivre noir torréfié. Le fruité est un peu là avec une mangue très mûre qui passe sur la langue, assez fugitive. On retient surtout ce boisé poussiéreux, ce vieux cuir, la boîte à cigare, mais surtout beaucoup de noix en fin de bouche. La finale est longue, sur le tabac et le cuir, ce fumé de whisky et du caramel. Ce rhum est vraiment un ovni et me montre que la différence entre des très bons whisky et ces vieux rhums étaient vraiment ténus à l'époque. Ce rhum est d'un raffinement sans pareil, et même s'il ne correspond pas du tout à mes goûts.
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.
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.

Smagning med Mr. Simon Hansen d. 17.07.2026 RX 1779 Clément 1979 Duft: Lækker sødmefuld agricole, bittersød overmoden mirabelle. Palette: Let tobaks æske og grøn peber, nougat. Eftersmag af karamelliseret sukker, let røg og frugt. Glasset: Let røg svagt cognac fad. Smagning “In the garden”
Review by Daniel Jungberg.
Smagning på "Basecamp" D. 12.08.2026 Næsen på eventyr👃: Fornemmer jeg gammelt røget fad, tørret frugt, grønne æbler og krydret. Tungen på eventyr 🥃 : smager jeg en lækker agricole! Der er sukkerrør. Der er krydret urter, masser tørret frugt, og et gammelt fadpræg! Halen på historien💫 : kort-mellemlang. eftersmagen er for mig slet ikke så tør, som jeg ellers havde forventet. Masser mundvand, masser smag. Et lille strejf af noget røget, ellers en lækker olieret sirup, der bare smøre svælget! En verdensklasse Agricole! 🤤
Review by Joachim Guger
A very warm, soft bouquet. Wood, honey, lots of spice and some fruit. Beautifully melted. It continues in a similar way in the mouth. Nice and peppery on the finish (a really good type of pepper!😅). What remains is a beautiful caramel-wood veil. Very good, very drinkable. Definitely different from today's agricoles.🧐
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!

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 Stijn Zino
Normaal geen Agricole fan maar dit heeft me overtuigd. Neus, mond en afdronk feest!
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 Dave Dahlgren
En väldigt balanserad rum som har värmande lite cognac känsla och torr bondgård fruktig men värd pengarna är en annan fråga. Skulle kunna vara starkare
Review by rhum
quelle surprise ! magnifique dégustation, d’un rhum complexe et équilibré avec un bois bien intégré, des fruits et toujours cette FRAÎCHEUR de l’agricole qui se fait si rare sur les très vieux, honnêtement magnifique travail
