Rhum J.M Épices Créoles

From the Days of Rum 2023 box. Start out with all the oranges. Very fruity. Vanilla. Cool and unexpected start. Let dig in- Taste: more oranges. Quite bitter too. Ginger. Pretty intense for its 46%. Did somebody dropped some fanta and tonic in the cask? Interesting vibe for an agricole. Outspoken. Not really balanced. Part of a series. Had the Fumee which is lighter but better balanced. Fun drop though.

Viel Holz und im Geschmack recht bitter. Nicht so unser Ding.

Still good agricole.

#4433 Whisky & Rom Festival 2023 28.10.2023 Noten. Sehr fruchtig mit einer würzigen Note. Hat sowohl erdige als auch pflanzliche Noten und dann eine leichte Karamellnote.

Beautiful intensity and aromatic richness. Very gourmand rhum agricole with a lovely sweetness of spices and ripe fruit. Terribly effective

Time to finish up the 1423 Christmas calendar "24 days of rum". On day 17 we get an agricole that I find decent, with a nose of ginger and other spices. I'm getting tastenotes of sugarcane, cinnamon and other spices and a finish of smooth oak

Sehr fruchtig würzige Nase. Im Geschmack eine deutliche Fassprägung, die ein schönes Kompliment zwischen Holz und Agricoltypischer Frische entstehen lässt. Leider! Viel zu kurzer Abgang. Der hat sich leider zu schnell verabschiedet…

Für den niedrigen ABV ist er erstaunlich gut!

Top als Cocktail, aber auch trocken. Sehr nett, vor allem für 28€ in Spanien ^_^. Zusammengefasst, meine Degustationsnotizen: Nase: Würzig, Holz, Trockenfrüchte, Muskat, Pfeffer Geschmack: Holzig, Zimt, Muskatnuss, Junges Holz. Der Abgang: würzig, Tabak. Ein Muss für Cocktails!

Very nice young agricole! Almost like a finished old fashioned

Na ja, wie halt alle Rums in diesem Adventskalender ein ganz normaler Durchschnittsrum. Schmeckt etwas anderes wie die anderen, für mich leicht pfiffig und würzig, aber alles im Rahmen. Kann man machen.

The nose of this Rhum Agricole has a fruity note. The taste is dominated by the spices. The finish is spicy, fruity and with floral notes. Recommended for Agricole beginners.

This a very good rum and a great attemp at making an spiced rum without actual spices or any additives, but It kinda falls in the middle of nowhere in my opinion. It's an agricole but it doesn't have the typical grassy/floral notes. It's a decent sipper but it's not it's strongest point. The smell and taste really reminds me of a bourbon and I kinda miss a more "rummy" flavour. Don't get me wrong, the taste is very good, but at this price, you can get plenty of rums way better suited for sipping. As a mixer, that is it's main purpose, It's great, I tried it at daiquiri and cuba libre and it was excellent at daiquiri and very good on cuba libre. As I said, for the average price (which I think that is about 40€), I also think that there are better options for mixers. I got my bottle for 25€ so I won't complain too much... Overall a very interesting rum that I enjoyed, but it's a bit too bourbonish for my liking as a sipper. As a mixer it's outstanding and I appreciate the efforts of J.M of making something different.

Sample no.17 of the 24 days of rum calendar 2023. Nose is very inviting with dried fruits, orange peel, sugarcane, wood and vanilla. Palate is very different from the nose. Here you get more of a peppery and fermented vinegar or wine taste. The sugar cane juices give that special flavour compared to a rum made from molasses.

Ein seltsam würziger Agricole, der vor allem für Cocktails gedacht ist, aber auch allein in Anbetracht des Preises in Ordnung ist.
