Ahhh the French you could almost hate the entire nation for Michel Platini and his Anglophilic tendencies alone. So the French being the French they couldn’t make r(h)um the English way they had to do it their way.
And so was born Rhum Agricole (Agricultural Rum) a more expensive way of making rum. Agricole rum is made from fresh pressed sugar cane juice rather than molasses. Due to the price of the various rhum agricole’s on offer I was expecting something quite spectacular. However, from looking online it seemed quite overlooked and not a lot if it seemed to be getting on any notable award lists.
This is without the doubt the most difficult rum review I have done so far. When I first got into rum this was the first rum I bought online.
I bought this when I decided to order some rums that I would normally completely overlook. I figured that for the time being I’d probably tried enough Bajan and Navy style rums. It was time to expand my horizons and see what else was available.
