HSE Blanc

Great for cocktails; smooth, lacking punch.

HSE Blanc offers sugarcane and tropical notes, ideal for cocktails. Smooth and balanced but lacks punch for some.

    How does this rum taste?

    Smooth and well integrated flavors
    Ideal for beginners
    Perfect for cocktails

    HSE Blanc is an agricole rum from Martinique, crafted at the Distillerie du Simon with an ABV of 40%. Distilled from sugarcane juice, it features a nose of sugarcane, tropical fruit, floral, and pineapple aromas. The palate offers sweet, vegetal, and spiced gingerbread flavors. Users appreciate its balance and smoothness, making it ideal for beginners and cocktails. While praised for its affordability and flavor integration, some find it lacks intensity compared to higher proof versions. Its versatility in cocktails and a wide aromatic profile make it popular, though it may not be expressive enough for all preferences.

     Bought this rum in Costa del Sol, Spain for use in Ti’Punch. This AOC Agricole is produced at the Simon distillery in Martinique in their creole column. The nose is sweet and oily with scents of sugarcane, lemon and white pepper. The palate is in line with the nose with increased flavors compared to the scents. The finish is medium long. Overall a too thin rum with too low ABV for my taste, but it works well in a Ti’Punch and probably also in other cocktails.

     We had a go at several HSE today and I'm a bit tipsy from it.

     Petit rhum agricole pas très expressif mais sympathique en ti-punch ou pour allonger un mai-tai.
