How does this rum taste?
The HSE Sherry Oloroso Finish rum, crafted at Martinique's Distillerie du Simon, is a distinctive spirit with a unique character. Distilled from sugar cane juice and aged for over nine years, it features a pronounced sherry finish. Users describe its aroma as rich with nutmeg, Demerara sugar, and fruity vanilla notes, while the palate is marked by sweetness and spice, with hints of marmalade and tobacco. Praised for its complexity despite its youth, it offers balanced flavors with a satisfying finish. Notably, its integration of sherry is well-executed, adding depth without overpowering the rum's agricole roots. Some mention a lingering bitterness in the aftertaste, leaving their experience slightly unfinished.

This is a other surprisingly good rum. Naturally sweet and I think even a beginner in the Agricole world woul like this one. A young rum that is pretty complex of its age, fruity with spices, yum. Price to quality is very good.
Excellent rhum sherry
Le finish a été fait durant 1an en Fûts ayant contenu avant du Sherry : terme anglais pour le Xérès (Vin blanc d’Andalousie). Et plus précisément des Fino (15,5%) et Olorosso (18%) : des vins de xérès mutés avec des eaux de vies. On est à l’opposé du Finish La Tour Blanche, le nez est sur les fruits secs et le boisé. Avec des notes madérisées. Un nez intriguant. Et en bouche, c’est une agréable surprise. C’est équilibré, on retrouve les notes boisées du nez, des notes de Sherry, de la chaleur. C’est sec et long. On a une sacrée belle longueur pour du 45%.
Au nez c’est bien marqué sur le vin mûté Xérès, comme son plus jeune cousin le Port Cask. Mais ici point d’arômes de fruit rouges, les arômes de vin liquoreux, de flore, de noix et d’oxydation prédominent. Avec une belle rondeur et une certaine gourmandise apporté par des notes de sucre brun et de caramel. En bouche le rhum est bien intégré et il est bien équilibré avec son finish. A la différence du finish porto ou le Rhum se faisait clairement mettre KO par le porto ici le match va se jouer aux points… En bouche on retrouve ces arômes oxydatifs bien équilibrés avec la sucrosité et le jus suffisamment puissant et complexe pour supporter ce finish Sherry. En fin de bouche la longueur est correct mais l’amertume prédomine, dommage ce clap de fin laisse un petit goût d’inachevé ou de vite terminé…
