    How does this rum taste?

    HSE Single Cask (MEB 2020) is an exceptional rum from Martinique, distilled at Distillerie du Simon in 2003 and aged for 17 years. It's a limited release with only 1300 bottles available, boasting a significant 47.8% ABV. The aroma entices with notes of vanilla, dried apricot, and barrel spices like cinnamon. On the palate, it ranges from fruity dried apricot to woody and vegetal tones. Users appreciate its superb balance, especially for an Agricole rum, with highlights on its fruity nose and well-integrated flavor profile. Notes of dried fruit and grain add depth, appealing to both casual sippers and connoisseurs. A moderate aftertaste of grassiness completes the experience.

    Third tasting: score remains constant, on the palate nice fruity notes (cherry and plum)Second tasting: today seems to me the nose with sweet and floral notes, very nice ( 2)!Solid Agricole rum but no surprise. On the palate quite alcoholic despite only just under 48% and slightly bitter but not unpleasant.Finish only medium length and strongly on the toasty side.

    The big surprise with this rum was how fruity it was on the nose. For an Agricole I'd say extremely fruity. Overall a well balanced Agricole that is easy drinkable with and overall nice profile.

    Rarely experienced such a wonderful fruity nose in an Agricole! The palate is clearly dried fruit and herbaceous grassy! He comes along pleasantly light, the finish is then typical Agricole grassy and herbal

    Great traffic jam!!
