A1710 Prosper

Most people agree this is a well-made young agricole, but plenty feel the fancy decanter does more work than the rum. The nose wins them over: dried fruit, mango, sugarcane, tonka, tobacco and a sweeter pepper. The palate is simpler and shorter — caramel, cane, walnut and a spicy kick, with the bourbon-and-cognac cask showing through as peach and orange.

Fruity young agricole, gorgeous nose, simpler palate Loved for its complex, floral nose and warm spicy finish, though several tasters find the palate falls short of the aromas — and the decanter draws as much comment as the liquid.

Agricole fans who love a spicy, fruity nose

Tasted at the Brussels Rhum Festival. A fine product - admittedly too expensive - well-fruited, with a little cane, wood, but above all peach, apricot, orange... the influence of cognac fut is very present (and still pleases me). Decanter as classy as ever. At 100€, anyone would take a case for the winter :)

A1710 cuvée Prospère Ce rhum assez jeune (3 ans de vieillissement) a été réalisé pour la première fois pour cette distillerie avec du pur jus de canne bio, en série limitée. Il présente le fameux syndrome de la jolie bouteille, où on se pose la question si l'essentiel du prix à payer n'est pas dans la carafe au lieu d'être dans la qualité du rhum. C'est ce que nous allons voir. Il tire à 49,6° et le prix est assez élevé : environ 200€. Sa couleur est d'un bel ambré séduisant. Le nez est au départ assez discret et il a besoin de temps pour s'ouvrir. Là encore, comptez un bon quart d'heure pour lui laisser le temps de se réveiller. Le nez typique de la Martinique est encore bien présent, avec des fruits secs, et un poivré plus sucré (poivre de Sichuan). On sent aussi du maracuja, et de la canne fraîche. Ce nez est complexe avec plus de senteurs qui popent : fève de tonka, chocolat, tabac. On passe beaucoup de temps les narines dans le verre. La bouche est en comparaison peu complexe : caramel, canne à sucre, noix. Il y a un peu de piquant : piment ou paprika. Tout s'estompe très rapidement et c'est regrettable. Si le nez était vraiment sympa, le palais est assez quelconque. Je n'en achèterais pas une bouteille entière sauf pour le côté collection. Le nez compense la note qui aurait pu être sévère.

8.4/10

Another bottling from the A1710 distillery that made it to my desk, and which makes me reminisce about a visit to the distillery in 2024. The nose is very pleasant, spicy, I can also smell cinnamon and then some of that agricole rhum finish. On the palate, I get wood and nuttiness in addition to the spice and a peppery quality towards the end... I would say a higher alcohol percentage than the almost 50%. It probably won't appeal much to molasses fans, but it will definitely win over rhum lovers. I am satisfied.
