HSE Élevé Sous Bois

Sip it neat or, better, build it into a Ti Punch — that's where this young Martinique agricole shines. Two years in wood softens the raw grassiness, so you get fresh sugarcane, citrus and a light pepper bite with a touch of oak on the finish. A few tasters found it thin-bodied and leaned toward mixing; one called it "Ti Punch mal anders."

Ti Punch mal anders. Mild und einen leichten Einschlag vom Fass. Kann man auch pur trinken, hat dafür aber etwas wenig Prozente.

Distillerie du Simon 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 over 330 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.
