On aeration, berries and raisins arise, the cane is candied and slightly perfumed, the wood is nutty, smoky with caramel, chocolate, pastry, spicy with vanilla and allspice. 8,8:On the palate, the attack is slightly sweet, dry with sugarcane honey, candied, herbaceous, grassy, flowery, mineral, earthy with tobacco, fruity with citrus, yellow and red fruits, as the wood is roasted with caramelized burnt sugar, nuts, leather, spicy with allspice, pepper. 8,8:The finish is long, dry&tannic, with grassy, flowery(geranium, perfume), earthy, slightly dark with black tea, sugarcane, citrus and dried fruits, roasted wood notes with chocolate, caramel, nuts, burnt sugar, leather, smoky, spicy with vanilla, pepper.

#5735 27.09.2025 Day one of the Whisky Live 2025, which this year looks better organized/arranged inside. This was a nice surprice. A bottling where most things come together, ABV, Fruits, Wood and nice Spices. A very good rum in my mind.
Review by Joachim Guger
Frische, Lösungsmittel, komplexe Zitrusaromen, Makronen, leichte Würze. Im Mund etwas scharf und sehr würzig. Richtung Abgang etwas künstlich, danach warme Würze. Gut trinkbarer, junger Neisson. Aber um den Preis kriegt man dann halt doch schon viel Besseres. Warten wir auf den übernächsten LMDW-Sale. 😀😀
Review by DutchRumPirate
A delicious, smooth, and oily rum. Very soft on the nose. Woody notes, a touch of toast, citrus, and agricultural notes come to the fore. The longer it sits in the glass, the more floral notes emerge. The same notes appear on the palate. Additionally, dark chocolate, raisins, and grassy flavors come to the fore. A nice warm, spicy, medium-long finish.
Review by mto75
An der Nase eine gute Balance aus frischen (Zitrusfrüchte) und nussigen Noten, dazu leichter Anklang von Schokolade / Toffee. Am Gaumen Pfeffernuss, Karamell. Insgesamt nicht schlecht, aber ehrlicherweise hätte ich mir noch etwas mehr Komplexität und Tiefgang gewünscht. Den Neisson Le Rhum XO Full Proof Abfüllungen kann er nicht das Wasser reichen, obwohl er auf deren Niveau bepreist ist.
Review by TheJona'Spirits
Tasting WLP2025. 👃&😋 Neisson markers very present; dried fruit, candied citrus, nuts, light caramel, beeswax, vanilla. Elegance of the distillery's fine woodiness, agricultural character present under sunny and comforting sugar cane. A smooth finish blending island spices, sweet tobacco leaf, dark chocolate, and bookbinding leather. Not very empyreumatic, however. Compare with the previous three FPs, which seem a notch above. To be rediscovered in better conditions and at a leisurely pace. Looking for a sample.
Review by TheJackDrop
"Âgée de huit ans et embouteillée au degré naturel, cette première cuvée Neisson L’Empyreumatique est le fruit d’un assemblage de rhums vieillis en fûts de cognac et en fûts de bourbon". LMDW. Encore une belle dégustation au calme lors de la soirée presse, et quelle claque ! A la fois gustativement (mais aussi au niveau du prix, là c'est difficile à suivre..). Au nez : des notes torréfiées et fumée, du citron jaune confit, un côté pâtissier plus sage, et un bon coulis de mangue. Neisson & sa canne sont présents, mais bien masqué derrière d'autres arômes entêtants. En bouche, une belle onctuosité. Des notes de framboise, de mangue, de caramel, ainsi que des notes sucrées & acidulées. Un vrai petit bonbon, un peu moins torréfié pour le coup, mais puisqu'on remet le nez dans le verre à chaque fois... ça marche ! Pas tellement noté le fût de cognac pour le coup, mais ça m'a bien plût.
Review by Jussi Piirainen
Time to celebrate holidays with some samples from some of the Neisson's latest releases. I think this rum did sit in the glass for a good 45 minutes before the review. On the nose: Woody, roasted and nutty notes dominate the profile. Sugarcane/agricole, light citrus and light raisin notes. Good intensity for 50% abv rum. Taste: Woody, nutty and spice notes at first. Light oily mouthfeel at first. Then you get more leather and tobacco notes with some grassy, sugarcane notes mixed in. Some nice fruity notes in the background, maybe mangoes. Good integration of alcohol. Pretty smooth. Finish: Warm, spicy, nutty and citrus notes. Short-medium finish. This was quite the experience and the range of notes did surprise me. I really enjoyed sipping this rum
Review by Righrum
Whisky Live Paris 2025 A nice surprise from Neisson. Unusual style, less precise but rather funny, I likes this one pretty enough, despite the neisson freshness leaves room to a more rounded woody profile.
Review by Johannes
Für mich etwas zu jung abgefüllt, aber schon sehr hohes Niveau.
Review by Benoit Mahe
Not empyreumatic at all, but right on the Neisson theme
Review by BottleShrimp
Une belle cuvée Neisson, cohérente du nez à la finale, dans la lignée des sorties premium de la distillerie (XO full proof). Reste le prix, Neisson également. Manque peut-être un quelque-chose pour en faire un très grand agricole.
Review by Adrien B
V1 85 : Belle rondeur, fruits à coque V2 N : merite de s'ouvrir, assez concentré sur boisé miel sombre. une petite fraîcheur B : attaque assez seche, très boisé, un peu cramée, tabac voire cendrier puis arrive orangette, fruit à coque et épice finale plus posée et plus agréable que l'attaque. À voir comment ça évolue avec de l'oxydation.
Review by Jarek
Verkostet zusammen mit dem RX25146. Der hier kommt reifer und erwachsener daher. Mehr Holz, mehr Würze, mehr Süße, dafür weniger Frucht, weniger Gras, weniger florale Noten. Trotzdem unverkennbar ein Agricole, und ein sehr guter dazu.
