Top review from Joachim Guger:

"Dark and oily. Very heavy, the scent lies him room. Chocolate, coffee, wood, caramel, leather. Only when you put your nose in the glass the fresh, grassy notes of an Agricoles come to light.a tart, long-lasting aftershave in the mouth. It now completely denies its origin, after a few minutes you briefly feel some grassy freshness on the palate.Craftsmanship very good, well balanced, alcohol integration a model. Wood you just have to likeFriends of old, heavy Demeraras, this is THE Agricole for you."

"A wonderful insight into a bygone era. Tasting this rum was an experience. However, I would have liked a little more revolutions."

Top review from cigares :

"The emotion of drinking an aged rum, even if it has spent most of its life in the bottle. A very dry nose with a slight earthiness and vanilla. Lots of finesse and elegance throughout. Tropical fruit on the palate, pineapple and banana. A surprisingly long finish, with sugarcane and fruit. I'm sure the rum continues to evolve in bottle. Not as strong as the Courcelles 1972 at 47% and 54%, which have a broader aromatic palette, but a very fine rum all the same."

Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:

"This is not a bad rum, but I would have loved a higher ABV. The nose is grassy with fruits and spices as well as some wood. I get mostly apple here. The palate is spicy/peppery with grass and fruit in the front trailed by vanilla, wood, leather and a light herbal note. The finish is medium long and warm with wood, spices and fruits."

Top review from Rodolphe:

"Just after its brother st james V&B. It's the same kind of Martinique profile, with a very present, greedy woodiness. This one is perhaps a little finer on the nose, a little spicier on the palate. It's an excellent martiniquais, but once again a profile that's perhaps too woody to enter the 90+ category."

Top review from cigares :

"A rum tasted at the WLP and in Cologne. A warm nose with walnuts, Cementit, old hemp rope and, above all, rapeseed flowers. A fairly lively attack on the palate, with leather, glue and wood, followed by fruit, yellow fruit and apple. A long, elegant finish. A fine rum, all elegance except on the attack."

Top review from cigares :

"Un rhum dégusté au WLP. Un nez étonnement vif vu les millésimes, du végétal mais aussi des fruits jaunes et des fruits tropicaux. La bouche donne des notes d’encaustique à la cire, de l’amande fraîche et de la feuille de figuier. Un côté salé commence une finale plutôt douce, longue et se terminant sur le bois. Je me sens en Sicile dans un verger en désordre et le verre vide raconte une histoire de vieux château."

"Clean Agricole that is fresh and fruity with a lot of nice spices and only a hint of barrel. I recommend letting it rest for at least 15 minutes before giving it a go."

"Overall a too sharp and alcoholic Agricole in my opinion. I have tasted quite many Agricole’s and I like very many of them, but this one I really don’t can recommend. Great bottle, but the content........"

Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:

"Pretty good rum from Bally and you get what you pay for. The Agricole notes are there just in a light version. The nose is warm, fruity and woody with nutmeg, tobacco, leather and a hint of varnish. The palate is also fruity and woody with sugarcane, leather, tobacco and a hint of iodine and flowers. The finish is medium long with wood, spices and dried fruits."

Top review from Oliver:

"Interesting aromatics. Here floral notes come together with peanuts and fennel.Lots of wood on the palate and quite dry. Due to the dilution, the finish is unfortunately relatively flat. All in all, however, a successful Agricole, which will please lovers of barrel-heavy Agricole."

"Verkostet auf der Kirsch Cruise 2024. Für mich ein eher schwächerer aus der Bally Linie. Schön ihn doch mal probieren zu können, aber überzeugt hat er mich leider nicht. Da gibt es weit aus bessere die ich bis dato im Glas hatte. Für mich eher ein "Einsteiger Rum""

Top review from Stefan Persson:

"Overall an Agricole with very weak taste and the alcohol is quite dominant. Besides that it’s the grassy, herbal and vegetable notes that’s mostly recognizable even if it’s also possible to recognize some fruits, oak and tobacco."

Top review from Tim :

"Tasted at the GRF23 at the Velier tasting. There are better white agricoles than this one, although unaged rums almost never come close to an aged rum. That's why my rating for white rum stops at around 8/10."
