Neisson Zetwal 2023

Softer and more elegant than the noise around it suggests — this is Neisson playing it refined, not wild. The nose runs to hazelnut praline, milk chocolate and orange, with a light agricole grassiness underneath. The palate is round and gently sweet, syrupy even, more pastry and dried fruit than raw cane fire. A blend of older vintages, reduced to a soft 49.4%. Long, floral finish.

Neisson has clearly pulled out all the stops with this cuvée. The nose is just sublime, with a myriad of spices of all kinds complementing a very elegant and elaborate profile. Patisserie notes of brioche, crème brûlée, toffee, honey and caramel add to the greediness, along with chocolate, mocha and baked apples. The woodiness blends with the fruit (dried, exotic and citrus) and a hint of freshness. It's hard to get much more complete than this. The attack on the palate is incredibly round, with a superb harmony of flavors. Spices, roasted hazelnuts, chocolate, almond, sugarcane, candied fruit (tropical and citrus), wood, tobacco, aromatic herbs and caramel give a great concentration of elegance and complexity. The alcohol is imperceptible, but perhaps just lacks a little pick-me-up to invigorate the profile. The finish is highly aromatic, with tangy citrus, chocolate, espresso, spices of all kinds, melted wood, roasted hazelnut and cane juice. There's a slight agricultural note of fresh, aromatic herbs that returns at the very end. It's a breath of dry but very complex air. All in all, this is a top-quality rum, the secret of which only Neisson knows. However, the quality in no way justifies the totally indecent price of this cuvée, placed in the segment of excessive luxury with a pretty decanter. After the Nonaginta cuvée, this is another red card for Neisson.

Dégustation lors du Whisky Live 2023, assemblage 2000, 2005, 2012, 2013 entre 10 et 21 ans. Bel assemblage de Neisson (après compliqué de faire du mauvais avec ce qui est proposé). Très doux et rond encore fois, des notes pâtissières agréable, s'entremêlent la vanille, le cacao, le bois noble, des fruits secs et côté un peu caramélisé, avec une jolie finale sur le bois. Dommage encore qu'une fois qu'on soit sur un prix exorbitant.

Wisky Live 2023, session dégustation rapide ! Un peu surpris, je m’attendais à une bombe et finalement c’était plutôt fin, complexe. Quand on regarde le prix et le bruit autour de la bouteille.. j’ai comme un doute même si ça reste un excellent produit.

A great, well balanced rum. Maybe just a bit below Sacha, but really high level. Usual neisson notes, spices and sugarcane, the wood and some pastry notes. These neisson are surely a hit, despite high price.

Good but not worth the price. Too low. The very indecency of a distillery that positions itself as ultra-luxury.

Le Rhum est correct mais clairement le prix est déconnecté de toute réalité gustative. Incompréhensible.

Avg Rating 8.4/10 240 Rums

Neisson is the smallest distillery on Martinique, making under 2 percent of the island's rum, and one of only two still in family hands. Run today by Claudine Vernant Neisson and her son Gregory, it distils on a 1952 all-copper Savalle still, ferments with its own native yeast, and makes what many call the island's finest white rhum. The community rates its aged bottlings among the very best agricole there is.
