The aroma is the characteristic sugary grass of agricole blanc, with a sharp aspect to it, perhaps a bit of lime. The taste barely lets you get a taste of sugarcane goodness before quickly hitting you with that tart lime, then sort of blurs out into a hot finish.
Apparently those in the know prefer this to Clement and La Favorite, but I think to the layman's palate they're pretty similar. I compared this side by side with La Favorite and could notice the taste and aroma on this are "sharper", more of that tart lime compared to a somewhat "softer", banana-esque aroma with La Fav. My recollection is I liked the Clement Canne Bleue better than either, but it's been a few months since I finished that so I'll have to compare them again.
Overall this delivers as an agricole blanc. I find it a little harsher to sip neat than others I've tried, but it's still good, just different. And of course, you can't go wrong with a ti punch. At $32 for the bottle the value is solid.
