Depaz Cuvée Prestige
Yellow fruit up front — apricot, fresh grapes, peach — with vanilla sitting back and a wave of spice and light tobacco underneath. This 11-year Depaz agricole drinks smooth, almost honeyed, yet finishes drier than the sweet nose suggests. One taster called it "smooth and truly magnificent"; a couple noted a menthol edge and warm, fairly short finish. Elegant, cane-driven Martinique sipping.

Aggregated from 43 community reviews.
Elegant aged agricole, fruit over old wood Most find it elegant and smooth, full of grape, peach and vanilla with a spicy, nutty finish. A few say the nose oversells the sweetness and it turns warm and menthol-tinged.

Review by Stefan Persson
As a summary this is a very smooth and truly magnificent Rhum with scents and flavors of fruits, spices, oak, sugarcane and some hints of tobacco. It’s an older version of the Cuvée Prestige now sold in the blue wooden box.
Review by Romain de L
We tried this one as a blind tasting - and it’s very convincing. Nice nose, quite rich - but the taste / attack is very smooth, almost honeyed, but without the sugar taste - silky aftertaste. The value for money is quite remarkable
Review by Christian Rudt
I was very excited. But compared to the standard xo there are then but clear differences:nose has more especially yellow fruit, vanilla rather in the background.On the palate then comes through the spice. There is some tobacco, we have a nice peach note and some citrus.Very elegant the whole with a slightly nutty finish. This is how I imagine a cuvée to be. Strong.👍
Review by TheJackDrop
Un bon rhum agricole qui ne tombe pas trop sur le vieux bois et la noix, mais au contraire garde un bon fruits, du raisin notamment, et une belle gourmandise (vanille, caramel, abricots). Merci au copain Arnaud !
Review by Madi Dromamad
Dégusté à l'aveugle. C'est bon facile à boire mais un peu trop mentholé à min goût. La réduction est un peu trop forte pour moi.
Review by Mc Pirate
Nez magnifique sur la gourmandise, raisins frais, vanille, banane, gâteaux, explose vraiment sur quelque chose de doux sucré ! Bouche plus sèche que ce que semblait prévoir le nez mais nous sommes sur un rhum agricole, alcoolique, sans ester, sur l’eau de vie de vieille prune, plus spiritueuse que rhum. Finale moyenne et chaleureuse
