Velier Neisson Cuvée Chai 2 Vevert 2016
Grassy sugarcane, citrus and a lavender-floral lift set the tone here — this is agricole at its most perfumed and elegant, not tropical-sweet. Underneath sit vanilla, roasted almond, tobacco and young oak, with a spicy, lively attack from the 56.8%. The empty glass wins people over: ginger, chocolate, rose water. One of three 2016 single casks, and several tasters rank this the pick of the trio.

Comparison between the three Neisson 2016 Chai 4yr. Cask #5 The lightest color already indicates that this rum has the lightest and most herbal notes. And that's true. Lots of young wood, grass and plants, flowers and polish. 75 points Cask #2 The darkest in color of the three. On the palate clearly warmer, fuller and more astringent than its brothers. Red fruits, tobacco, leather and wood. Wonderfully long warm finish. 85 points Cask #4 The fruitiest of the trio with an interesting grassy caramel-citrus note on the finish. Slightly bitter, lies somewhere in its aroma spectrum between grassy and leathery. 77 points

Perfumed and very elegant. Slight lavender taste. Tastes great but not like tropical rum.
Review by LukaŽiga
8,7:On the nose, the first impression we get is a grassy, herbaceous sugar cane with tea, spicy, slightly roasted wood notes with almonds and dark chocolate, as the fruits are tropical with banana, coconut and juicy peaches. On aeration, it becomes flowery and minty, a bit resinous and roasted with confectionery like biscuits, baked apple with honey. 8,7:On the palate, the attack is delicious, creamy with sugarcane honey, herbaceous, minty, fruits like grapefruit, banana and peaches, vanilla and roasted almonds, hazelnuts. With resting, the cane is flowery, grassy, earthy with some tobacco and black tea, the wood becomes resinous, nutty, some confectionery pops out. 8,6:The finish is long, tannic, the grassy cane, fruits are complemented with spicy, roasted, smoky wood notes and dairy touch... Edit:11.10.25, the best from 3 Cuvees 2016
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
A slightly older tasting. The price tag is pretty good compared to what you get. A fruity rum with a nice mix of spices and a nice floral note. The empty glass is really nice and I can pick up some ginger and chocolate.

Love this one! How does it compare to the other two?
Review by Oliver
Interesting citrus and coconut notes on the nose. On the palate comes tropical fruit and a great spice. Good, but not an extraordinary Neisson.
Review by John Coffey
Beautiful mastery with an interesting length.
Review by Joachim Guger
A very fresh nose - citrus, solvent, mint. Tingling in mouth and finish. Not very complex. Not bad, but the weakest of the three chais. The fresh nose makes it interesting.
Review by Santo
A woodier, fresher, and more floral profile than the Adrien warehouse. The finish is a bit more persistent but I like this one less.
Review by Adrien B
Nose: bakery oven, tangy, citrus Mouth: very spicy, tastes young, lively attack, short finish Empty glass surprising, floral, rose water
