Neisson L'Esprit De Neisson Bio

Sipped neat, this white agricole is a lot gentler than its 66% suggests — several tasters call it the best white rum they've had. Expect fresh sugarcane, lime and citrus, an oily, coats-your-mouth body, and a briny, almost salty edge. The usual grassy agricole bite is dialed back, and the finish runs long and faintly sweet.

So for a 66% white rum, this is incredibly smooth and balanced. Grassy, lime, almost sweet on the finish. I'm impressed.

Ottimo. Il classico sentore erbaceo e verde degli agricole qui non è predominante e questa cosa personalmente la preferisco. Nel gran sentore di agrumi emerge una nota di salamoia. Gusto potente e parecchio oleoso al palato. La gradazione alcolica è importante ma perfettamente integrata. L'ho assaggiato in un sample e ricordo in particolare l'oleosità che mi ha colpito.

A true brut de colonne that lives up to its name, organic as it is, with all the spirit of Neisson in this bottle, which doesn't reach 70º until much later. A long, lingering finish. Excellent, I highly recommend it.

It hits the nose and mouth. Despite its relatively high alcohol content, it remains smooth and pleasant. I think it's one of the best white rums I've ever tasted.

Neisson 

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.
