Typical Martinique. Round and soft. Notes of vanilla, crème brûlée and wood, without being too dominant. Not too spicy. A good typical VO. A delight. Doesn't burn for a young VO.

7.4/10

I don't know off the top of my head whether the rhum had a special finish, but it's quite woody for agricoles, with herbal notes tending towards musty, but without tasting bad. The wood influence is very clear here. Despite only 42%, there is a slight alcoholic tingle on the tongue, which quickly disappears. The consistency therefore also feels a little thin. Otherwise a very solid agricole, which is definitely not a bad buy, especially given the low price. But there is still plenty of room for improvement. Edit: I've just seen that it's only been in the cask for 3 years. It is very interesting that such a woody taste develops within this short time.

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.
