You must like the funk of rhum Agricole, but it was outstanding. Had it after dinner with organic fresh local strawberries and some extra sharp cheddar cheese from New Zealand. Definitely on my favourites.
Words cannot say how much I love this. Again, it is not for everyone, but if you love rhum, it is wonderful.
