Neisson XO Cuvée du 3ème Millénaire
Most tasters land in the same place: a rounded, honeyed aged agricole with hazelnut, licorice, milk chocolate and a soft caramel body. The nose leans woody, spiced and dried-fruit sweet. A couple find it a touch tame and licorice-heavy, and one felt it "drinks strong for the ABV," but the balance wins people over. Silky, gourmand, and clearly a well-aged Martinique cane-juice rum.
The community says- Silky balanced body

How does Neisson XO Cuvée du 3ème Millénaire taste?
Summarized by AI from 20 community reviews.
Silky, nutty aged agricole sipper Loved by most for its silky, balanced, nutty character — hazelnut, chocolate and licorice over gentle oak. A few find it too safe and licorice-forward, and it drinks warm.

Despite the relative low ABV this is a very nice and well balanced rum with lots of flavour. Fruity with light wood and nuts and some caramel on the palate. The palate is oily and I really like the nutty note. In the empty glass i can pick up light licorice and chocolate.

Dried fruit, wood and spices on the nose. On the palate, hazelnut predominates, with licorice, chocolate and wood... Too sage and licorice-like for my taste. The palate is clearly below the nose. Not really my thing!
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Honeyed nose: woody/spicy/vanilla/dried fruit/butterscotch. The nose is well-balanced and fresh. On the palate, the attack is smooth and velvety. Licorice, woody notes, chocolate hazelnut, crème caramel and citrus fruits are on the menu. Long finish: woody-spicy-toasty Conclusions: this is a fine product, clearly in the upper echelons of old agricultural wines. It is a worthy representative of Martinique's terroir, with its masterful balance.
Review by Benoit Mahe
A very fine, round rum. Good length and grip despite the reduction. Very greedy.
Review by Ayc
Very easy to drink. Remarkably balanced, it's very round, honeyed with a nice silky texture. The length is decent for a rum at 45%. Hazelnut, vanilla, coffee, very indulgent. Maybe a bit lacking in fruit but it's very good.

Would deserve a few degrees more. Glug-glug
Review by Henry Davies
Interesting but not quite integrated nose. Chocolate and wood in the mouth. A bit of hot burn so not as smooth as other Rhums but pleasant medium length finish. Cognac undertones and a bit of agricole flavour in the nose. Drinks strong for the ABV as well. It’s perfectly fine but not a standout
