La Favorite Millésime 2011
Don't come to this expecting bright, grassy agricole — the wood and pepper are what people notice first. Cognac and Bourbon cask aging pushes cedar, spice and a nutmeg edge forward, with ripe yellow fruit (plum, mirabelle) underneath. Several tasters love the balance; others find it "too woody and spicy" and wish the finish ran longer. A polarizing La Favorite from 2011.
The community says- Ripe yellow fruit

Une très belle réussite.
Review by Galli33
This is a great rum from la favorite! Very smooth, delicious, balanced agricole. The alcohol is intergrated very well. With some more AbV/% this rum would hit a higher (90) score, for sure.

This is also a lovely rum. The wood is there from nose to finish. Add some fruit and spices to the peppery/spicy palate and you fell like in heaven. A wonderful Agricole. Would have loved a higher ABV :-)
Review by N’ours
Un beau nez, fruité et boisé. De la prune, mirabelle, et du pruneaux. En bouches, c’est très équilibré mais l’attaque est franche. On retrouve les fruits jaunes, bien murs, avec des notes boisés et épicés. La finale et piquante et boisé, très agréable. Une fois de plus les bruts de fut nous transportent dans une autre dimension avec beaucoup d’arôme et de puissance.
Review by Harald
Farbe: Bernstein bis helles leuchtendes orangebraun Geruch: Süß (Honig), fruchtig (Banane, Ananas), frisch, aromatisch und alkoholisch. Blumige Aromen (Orangenblüte) und Parfüm. Würzig (Anis) und holzig. Geschmack: Im Mund wenig süß, dann Aromen von Karamell und Lakritze. Beim Schlucken würzig, Bleistiftspäne und Lakritze. Etwas alkoholisch scharf. Abgang: Mittellang Würzig, holzig und trocken. Alkoholisch scharf. 85 Punkte
Review by alex
Très aromatique et puissant. Belle note d’épices et légèrement poivré. De bons fruits bien mûrs. Ça passe vraiment bien 😍
Review by Jarek
Verkostet zusammen mit dem 2010er Jahrgang (RX 839). Im Vergleich zum 2010 ist die Nase hier fruchtiger, dafür weniger pflanzlich/floral. Die Richtung setzt sich am Gaumen und im Abgang fort. Beide sehr lecker, da kann ich gerade keinen Favoriten (Kleines Wortspiel) ausmachen.
Review by F.L.O.
Die Gegenprobe zum 2010er (RX 839). Er ist m.E. Fruchtiger, aber die typischen Agricolnoten treten weiter in den Hintergrund. Holz, Würze und sogar ein bisschen Pfeffer glaube ich zu schmecken. Der Abgang könnte länger sein. Knapp verloren gegen 839
Review by Rodolphe
Pas très emballé par ce profil. Trop muscade et poivre pour moi. Certains amateurs devraient l'apprécier. Je regrette son manque de longueur en bouche.
