    Enjoying this lovely and complex rum before the first tasting of 2023. I love Neisson because their baseline on the older rums is pretty high. Very fruity and fresh with a hint of mint and licorice. Complex and very well balanced 😊 The finish is very long and smooth. Very nice curtains in the glass.

    Ein großer Rhum. Elegant, leichtfüßig. Nicht zu holzig, nicht zu grasig. Große Vanille Noten hintenraus. Ein toller Rum auf dem obersten Niveau.

    So, nach dem Split mal dieses lange erwartete Sample eingeschenkt… Direkt nach dem Einschenken mal reichlich Lack und Lösungsmittel. Nach 10min hat sich das gelegt. Nunmehr eine extrem komplexe Nase, bei jedem Schwenker was anderes und insgesamt schwer zu fassen - aber saugut.😀 Frische, Gewürze, Orange, die für Neisson typischen Mandelkekse, Lakritze, Banane, Holz, Oliven, Pflanzen etc. Fragil und fein. Etwas mehr Power würde nicht schaden.💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 Im Mund zuerst Zitrusfrüchte und dann viel Würze vom Holz. Abgang der Hammer. Warm und knusprig, ordentliche Speichelbildung, würzig, holzig und doch fein. Die hohen Erwartungen wurden erfüllt! Toller Neisson, gefällt mir eindeutig besser als sein Jahrgangsbruder von Velier. 2004 bleibt aber trotzdem eindeutig mein Lieblingsjahrgang.😀

    Wow, I wouldn't have thought that a rum with such a "low" percentage could be so good. It certainly comes across as very fresh and fruity on the nose. On the palate, the barrel/wood predominates again, as well as a hint of liquorice and nuts. Thanks to Vienna for the sample.
