I find this agricol white rum really incredible.
The nose may seem a little harsh and dry, but it should be allowed to breathe a little. Then the smell of cane and pure cane juice is amazing.
For the palate despite it being 59 degrees, I find it very easy to drink neat.
We also find the taste and freshness of slightly peppery sugar cane. I find it to be an excellent Agricol white rum. it is uncompromising and a little tough, but it is one of my favorite rums. the taste of fresh ducat cane is amazing. I prefer it to the Neisson 50/52 and 55.
Bottle gifted to me by friend Patrik. Clear. Aroma of freshly baked muffins right out of the oven. Hot and thick mouthfeel. This is a delightful warmth. Apples. Pronounced woodiness (without aging?). Finishes with a jucifruit gum flavor. Delightfully powerful.
According to me, this rum is one of the most tasty rums. I have no aluminium organs, and I'm still alive!... Yes, This rum is very strong... but if you drink it with cane syrup and a slice of lime, you'll enjoy it, for sure. I think the good recipe to appreciate it is half rum, half syrup (to avoid the inconvenience of it's high alcohol vapor) and a lime quarter. No rocks needed (as the "carribean recipe"!)
This is one good Rhum Agricole from Marie-Galante! Fruity and a bit grassy with lots of citrus and other fruits. You can use it as a sipper or make the most phantastic Mojitos. But be careful with its 59%, you don't feel them until it's too late ;)
Rhum agricole blanc de Marie-Galante titrant 59.
design : basique.
Nez : très parfumé, canne et fruits.
Bouche : canne à sucre suivi par l'alcool et une certaine amertume.
On sent les 59°.
Longue finale végétale.
Ce rhum est très aromatique, parfait pour les ti punch.
Institution de l’île Marie Galante (dépendance administrative de la Guadeloupe), les rhums Père Labat sont un hommage à un personnage ayant réellement existé : Jean-Baptiste Labat appelé plus communément Père Labat homme d’église dominiciain, passionné par la botanique, les voyages l’exploration, l’ethnographie, les sciences et l’écriture. Ajoutons au CV du personnage un exploit militaire, puisqu’il participa activement à la fortification de la Guadeloupe (il reste une tour visible sur place, qui porte son nom) et pris part à la défense de l’ile lors de l'attaque britannique de l'île de 1704 !
Quel rapport avec le rhum me direz-vous ? Il a également participé à la fondation d’une exploitation sucrière à Sainte Marie (Martinique), et il à aidé à moderniser l’industrie de la canne à sucre dans les Antilles.
L’histoire de la distillerie commence dans la seconde moitié du XIXème sicèle, lorsque Madame Poisson fait l’acquisition du domaine, auquelle elle donnera son om, pour se lancer dans une industrie lucrative pour l’époque, l’industrie sucrière.
Toutefois à la fin du XIXème, devant faire face à une modernisation de la filière et à sa réorganisation (concentration à la Grande Anse, devenant la principale sucrerie de l’île), le domaine est alors racheté par Edouard Rameaux, qui prend la décision de transformer l’exploitation en une distillerie, faisant, dès le début du XXème siècle, l’acquisition d’un alambic, puis d’une colone créole (en cuivre), il profite de cette transformation pour renommer la distillerie en l’honneur, du pionnier qui mis au point la distillation du vin de canne frais: la sucrerie du domaine POISSON devient la Distillerie du PÈRE LABAT.
A noter la belle approche artisanale; le rhum du Père Labat est fabriqué à partir du pur jus de canne à sucre lui donnant une jolie palette aromatique, véritable témoin de son terroir.
Notre avis : un très belle surprise, les 59° passent plutôt bien et ne gênent pas la dégustation.
Very tasty, fruity rum. Does not feel like 59%. Great as Ti-Punch!
Ce rhum est tres fruite et puissant.meme di il a une certaine douceur au regard des 59 degres il reste buvable sec mais merite un ou 2 glacons et est parfait u peu dilue en ti pu ch.grande qualite de produit.note7.8.A essayer si vs allez a marie gallante.
Very aromatic and fragrant. It has a very pungent and savory aroma, alongside the typical agricole grass notes - bit of a love-it-or-hate-it situation. It's also incredibly (and dangerously) smooth, I wouldn't have guessed its 59% ABV at all if I was blind-tasting it; barely any alcoholic burn at all.
I got great results pairing it with soused herring, try it if you're into cold fish!
One thing I don't like: I get the impression that the bottle loses flavor really fast after unsealing - at first it was welcome, since the freshly-opened flavor had an overwhelming in-your-face pungency that was a bit too much for me, but now after about a month it starts tasting a little flat (note that it's summer here, my kitchen isn't climatized and the bottle is on a shelf; would probably be different in winter. Hasn't impacted any of my other spirits as far as I can tell, though). I assume that it's because the aroma compounds are very volatile, nothing to do with how the screw top was made.

Expecting extreme alcohol notes, they seemed to be mastered away completely. Not an everyday rum, but definitely a speciality to have on the shelf!
