Introducing the Braud & Quennesson 2022 Rhum Blanc Agricole, a limited edition white rum boasting an impressive alcohol volume of 59.2%. This outstanding rum is a product of the Braud & Quennesson, a distillery that opened in late 2022 in Martinique. Overseen by cellar master Stephanie Dufour, this rum is distilled at the renowned Distillerie du Simon. Only 219 bottles of this exquisite rum have been produced, making it a rare gem for rum enthusiasts. Upon opening, this rum immediately transports you to the terroir of Martinique with its robust and earthy notes of rustic, wild cane brimming with sugar. The aroma is further enriched by zesty citrus notes, including lime and combava, which add complexity. As the rum aerates, the cane juice transforms into candy sugar, leaving a clean, intense, and straightforward cane juice flavor. The aroma is dynamic and indulgent, featuring spicy notes of tilleul and white flowers that add softness and richness. Initially present iodine notes quickly fade, giving way to sweet almond and floral hints of freesia and orange blossom. Swirling the glass reveals white pepper spice and a refreshing touch of citrus. On the palate, it reflects the very essence of sugar cane with a complex generosity that characterizes the southern Martinique terroir. Despite its high alcohol content, the rum provides a pleasant and surprisingly smooth persistence, making it an excellent choice for sipping or mixing in cocktails. This rum is a testament to the quality of Rhum Agricole, a type of rum made from fresh sugar cane juice rather than the more common molasses-based rum. The Braud & Quennesson 2022 Rhum Blanc Agricole exemplifies the unique and exceptional rums produced in Martinique.
Rhum Agricole is made from fresh sugar cane juice, unlike most rums which are made from molasses, a by-product of sugar production. This gives Rhum Agricole a distinct flavor profile that is often more vegetal and fresh.
Yes, despite its high alcohol content, the Braud & Quennesson 2022 Rhum Blanc Agricole has a smooth persistence that makes it ideal for both sipping and mixing in cocktails.
A total of 219 bottles of the Braud & Quennesson 2022 Rhum Blanc Agricole were produced, making it a limited edition release.
Despite high expectations fueled by positive pre-release reviews, I found the Braud & Quennesson 2022 Rhum Blanc Agricole to be somewhat disappointing. The high alcohol content overshadowed the intricate flavors, leading to an aromatic imbalance. While it is a powerful rum, it did not meet my standards, especially considering its price point of around 59 euros. Overall, it may not be the best choice for those seeking a balanced and nuanced Rhum Agricole.
