William Hinton White

Built as a mixer but drinkable neat if you brace for the 69%, this Madeira agricole leads with fresh sugarcane, grapefruit and briny olive, with a menthol-eucalyptus edge that keeps showing up. Several tasters catch a whiff of gas or petrol on first pour before the citrus and lychee arrive. Long, herbal, faintly sweet finish — a white that changes with air.

How does William Hinton White taste?

Summarized by AI from community reviews.

Fresh, high-proof cane-juice white agricole Well-liked white agricole: fresh cane, grapefruit and olive, with a menthol lift. The heat isn't fully tamed at 69%, and a gassy opening throws some people, but it settles into something fresh and lively.

8.2/10

69°... Enough to make your jaw drop. And yet, it goes down well. Nice sweetness, but the menthol/eucalyptus aspect on the nose and palate is what really stands out for me. The finish is long, both fresh and warm (a strange contradiction, isn't it :)).

#6383 21.02.2026 Enjoying a set of samples my friend brought for us to enjoy. This was a surprisingly good rum, especially when looking at the price tag. Despite this being a mixer rum it also makes a pretty good sipper. Medium intense with nice sugarcane, cirtrus and olive and a nice log herbal finish.

8.6/10

The nose starts off badly, surprisingly, as a smell of gas dominates....PUIS transformation, grapefruit and lychee arrive, very fresh. On the palate, the scent is more of 69°, grapefruit and sugarcane dominate, with a slight spiciness. The freshness lingers on the palate for quite some time. A nice surprise!
