Romdeluxe Wild Series Rum Martinique No. 16 MSRA 2008

Herbaceous sugarcane, lemon peel and dried apricot lead here, with pepper and nutmeg building through a long, dry, tannic finish. This is a 13-year Martinique agricole at cask strength, and tasters keep landing on the same word — "classic martinique." Not a sweet rum: the fruity cane notes turn dry and woody, with a faint medicinal edge some pick up. The 59% stays surprisingly well integrated.

The community says
  • Classic agricole character
  • Well-integrated alcohol
  • But: Faint medicinal edge

8,3:On the nose, the first impression we get is winterly with baking spices, citrus, yellow fruits, vegetal with grass, tea, herbaceous sugar cane, roasted wood with nuts. On aeration, the cane is flowery, sweet, later minty, mineral, the wood brings vanilla, caramel, confectionery, from fruits, we get lemon peel, raisins, as we could notice cognac tones, some malt later. 8,5:On the palate, the attack is delicious with sugarcane honey and vanilla, very tasty peaches, dried apricots, woody with peanuts, spices like pepper, nutmeg, some salt. After resting the rum, the cane is herbaceous, flowery, vegetal with tea, grass, tobacco and mineral, citrus pops up with bitter orange. 8,3:The finish is long, dry and tannic, with similar notes as on the palate, the cane becomes earthy, there is some raspberry and confectionery.

Distillerie du Simon 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 340 Rums

Le Simon is Martinique's ghostwriter. It is the island's most technologically advanced distillery, yet it sells no rum under its own name, runs no public tours, and ages nothing on site. Instead it distils two of the most beloved names in Martinique agricole, HSE and, until recently, Clement, on stills moved here from their original homes. What you taste as HSE is, in fact, Le Simon.
