    • Complex aroma with woody notes

    HSE Extra Vieux Small Cask Rum, distilled at Distillerie du Simon in Martinique, is a limited edition spirit with a pronounced woody aroma complemented by dried fruit, vanilla, and subtle plum undertones. Aged for over six years, it offers a complex flavor profile with cinnamon and an oily texture. Users appreciate its expertly crafted blend of woodiness, dried fruits, and vibrant spices, though some find it lacking in standout characteristics compared to other Agricole rums.

    "Schooner relaxed HSE. Lacks a bit of power."

    "Tasted at the 11th GRF: More exciting than, for example, the XO and quite drinkable. For me, however, is also missing here a unique selling proposition or something character that sets it apart from the mass of Agricoles!"

    "On the GRF11 three rum from HSE tasted against each other! Craft they are all well done, but for me personally they are all too flat and little expressive!"

    "A small cask with selective but concentrated aromas. Notes of fruit and dried fruit blend well with spices and chocolate. This greediness continues on the palate with notes of plums. The finish remains selective in aroma but intense on the palate. A fine success for a relatively young profile."
