This one was a surprise especially when looking at the price tag. Lovely Agricole notes mixed really well with fruits, cane and some vanilla.
Review by Vincent D
Goûté au RhumFest 2024 : Encore un HSE au rapport qualité-prix très intéressant.. Un agricole typique mais bien réalisé. On y retrouve les marqueurs habituels sur ces embouteillages donc pas de grande surprise. Vraiment très agréable.
Review by Godspeed
Update: just bought a bottle of this and I have to push my score a little higher. For 39€ this may be one of the craziest deals out there. Beautiful blond tobacco flavors, excellent as both easy sipper as well as in ti-punch. First review: At 36€ this is a steal and I understand why it won a gold medal at the Concours Mondial de Bruxelles. Made from a single variety of cane, R570, from a single patch of plantation land. Citrus, blond tobacco, hint of orange, and lots of clearly discernible vanilla. It’s not fully a “coup de cœur” for me but for the price it is great.
Review by Oliver
Great, complex nose. A great creaminess and a pleasant sweetness emerge on the palate. Issue price under 40€. An absolute value-for-money monster! 🚀
Review by Timo Groeger
Ja für seine 45% ABV ist er echt gut. In der Nase überwiegend holzig, ausserdem sind noch Fruchtnoten zu erkennen. Am Gaumen dann auch überwiegen Holz, außerdem noch sehr pflanzlich und der Agricole kommt auch durch. Vernünftiger Rum.
Review by TheRhumhoe
A wood-aged rum that perfectly combines the power of the distillate with the refinement of aging. Cane, tobacco and young wood mingle with spices and exotic fruits to create an explosive, dry and elegant whole. On the palate, the explosiveness of the rum is palpable, with notes of aromatic herbs, chamomile and candied cane that play off a fine, young woodiness, spicy spice and exuberant fruitiness. The whole is remarkably balanced and complex. The finish continues the duel between spices and wood and aromatic herbs and floral notes, with no clear winner but a pleasing palate. A fine exercise in parcel-aged rum, combining power and finesse at a derisory price.
Review by Christian Rudt
Mal am Kalender von meinem Bruder genascht 😄 Schöner Agricole. Nase mehr Frucht am Gaumen dann mehr in die florale Richtung. Kamille bestimmt den Schluss.
Review by Korkennase🥃
The nose is very complex and the wine note is very present, not unpleasant. The alcohol is well integrated and the 45% suits the rhum really well. The finish is long and dry with a slight spiciness. This rhum is something for connoisseurs and impresses with its complexity.
Review by Filip Šikula
Obecně vzato nejsou agricole můj největší kámoš, ale u HSE jde obvykle o vyjímku a jejich rumy jsou fajn. Typického tóny agricole jsou doplněny ovocnými a karamwlovými tóny a i při nižším ABV to funguje moc hezky.
Review by Andi
I was impressed by the price after the first sip, for 39€ I think the experience as a whole is very fair. I think it's definitely suitable whether you're an experienced palate or a beginner. Beautiful fruity aromas mingle with the agricole notes.
Review by GuybrushThreepwood
Wow, was für eine schöne Überraschung. Für den Preis ein absoluter Kracher. Schöner entspannter Sipper der weder zu fordernd noch langweilig ist. Macht einfach alles richtig. Unbedingte Empfehlung. Bin gespannt auf den dritten im Bunde.
Review by passlemix
Une nez très frais et plutôt sympa, zestes d'agrumes en tête assez marqués, un peu de bois et barbe à papa par moment. Par contre la bouche m'a un peu déçue, j'en attendais sans doute plus vu les notes et avis. Je l'ai trouvé finalement assez pâle, clairement en dessous du nez, avec une finale qui tombe complètement. Un rhum qui affiche quand même 45 mais malgré tout trop dilué. Donc niveau rapport qualité prix on reste effectivement pas mal, faut dire qu'à 35 euros y'a pas grand chose, par contre pas un must have pour moi. Je préfère mettre 10 de plus et partir sur un autre jeune jus.
Review by Leslie Haigh
Really good rum best agricole I had to date friuty and woody no real burn very good stuff
Review by Mc Pirate
Another exceptional nose and a little disappointed by the palate. Now it needs to open up and oxidize.
Review by Gd Flo
a fairly pronounced woodiness and high oxygenation make this esb easy and pleasant to drink.
