Bologne New Old Double Maturation
Cognac drinkers curious about agricole will feel most at home here. This Bologne double-matures in bourbon and cognac casks, and it's the cognac side people notice most: caramel, citrus, baked apple and a peppery, young-oak finish. Several tasters call it easy to drink and a good deal, though the palate stays gentler and less complex than the promising nose suggests.

- Easy to drink

How does Bologne New Old Double Maturation taste?
Aggregated from 18 community reviews.
Easy cane-juice rum with a cognac-cask twist Most find it an easy, likeable aperitif — caramel, citrus and pepper with a clear cognac twist. The catch: the palate is milder and shorter than the nose promises.

Double fut pour double plaisir Presque trop facile à boire , mais quelques subtilités. Vu le prix, ca passe à 8 ! En resume, mes notes de degutation : Au nez : Agrumes, Vanillé, Épices, Boisé En bouche : Crème Brûlée, Fruits secs, Pommes au four, Épices, Poivré La finale plutot orientee vers : Poivré, Bois jeunes
Review by Morgan Garet
Un Bologne parfait pour l'apéritif. Des notes gourmandes de chocolats de caramel, du fruits et des épices. On sent + le côté cognac que bourbon.
Review by Pascal Gwada
Un bon rapport qualité-prix pour ce Bologne avec la particularité cognac. Très bon nez légèrement sur le caramel, plus discret en bouche avec du boisé et une longueur moyenne assez agréable. Agreable sans être très complexe. Donc pourquoi pas avec un chocolat ou un dessert.
Review by Zboubinho913
Bologne never disappoints. This rhum is very good to sip with a little of thick juice like mango or banana. Even neat it has a little taste of caramel. For about 20e in France's grocery, it really is a good deal.
Review by Fabrice Rouanet
L’intensité et la richesse aromatique est moyenne, pas désagréable mais avec une petite pointe de déception car le nez est prometteur. La finale est juste moyenne, il lui manque des degrés pour espérer mieux
