I have had La Mauny and it is a serviceable but unexceptional amber agricole. It's relatively young age is apparent in it's lack of complex flavors. It has the vegetal notes but they are subdued and sort of flat compared to St. James Royal Ambre. It is much more one-dimensional than the other rhum vieux I have had. Makes a drinkable 'Ti Punch and would probably be a good gateway rhum to introduce the agricole style to new audiences.
