    How does this rum taste?

    • floral sugarcane and citrus
    • pleasant drinking strength
    • very good ungelagerter Agricole

    RumX members peg HSE Blanc as a dry, rustic agricole that’s all about fresh sugarcane, grassy notes, and a solid hit of citrus right from the nose, with floral and vegetal echoes throughout. Fruits and spice pop up, but it’s that "floral sugarcane and citrus" (Tim) and "strong grassy, lemony and floral notes" (Martin Augustin) that set the tone. The ABV sits pretty well for most, with just a "slightly peppery" touch for some, and many find it shines in a Ti Punch. Straight up, it’s a classic, no-nonsense Martinique white rum.

    "In summary it’s a rustic, dry, powerful, intense and balanced Agricole Blanc. I’ve also tested it in a Ti Punch and it was great. The nose is fruity, spicy and floral. On the palate it’s a little bit rustic and the aromas from the nose just explodes in the mouth."

    "A white rum with a pleasant drinking strength. The nose consists of floral sugar cane and citrus. Peppery spicy in the mouth, but still easy to drink. Citrus and grass lingers long, but the rum is a bit thin overall."

Palate Warm, intense, fruits, olive, light salt, light citrus, light grass, lightly sweet, sugarcane, spice. Finish Long and warm, oily, olive, light salt, citrus, light vegetal, sugarcane.

    "A very good unaged rum agricole. Strong grassy, lemony and floral notes greet you. Then it is very dry, slightly grassy in taste with a light pepper finish. Amazingly mild in taste."
