The incredible Agricoles coming out of Trois Rivières are renowned worldwide, but only recently became available in the U.S. Trois Rivières refers both to the Distillery and the 120 acre plantation bordered by the three rivers, St. Pierre, Oman, and Bois D'Inde. It was founded around 1660 by Minister Nicolas Fouquet making Plantation Trois Rivières one of Martinique's oldest. Located in Sainte-Luce, it's famous windmill is a well-known landmark on the island. Their ancestral methods of creating agricultural rums produces one of the Caribbean's finest rhums and uses exclusively cane grown on their own estate. Agricole rhum is extremely expensive to produce and aging in the tropical climates happens at a blistering pace with very thirsty angels. It's not unusual to pay $70 for something 5-7 years old, but to find a vintage Agricole in this age range would normally cost several hundred dollars and almost never sold as single barrels or at cask strength. This is an unprecedented opportunity to experience very old Agricole at an altogether reasonable price. Recently the distillery sold, so more single barrels might be a while. This was filled on June 30th 2005. The barrel was constructed from Limousin oak and dumped on June 28th, 2019 just two days before its 15th birthday. Bottled at cask strength without color or chill filtration, it is one of only 130 bottles available from this cask. An believable level of complexity here, we couldn't pass up buying this.
