Rhum Chantal Comte Fighting Spirit Gold 2017

One taster called it "un petit punch à lui tout seul" — a white agricole loud enough to carry a ti-punch on its own. Expect sugarcane up front, floral and lemon-citrus notes, a menthol-fresh edge and a salty, iodine twist several people mention. At 50% it drinks hot and dry, with a peppery, earthy finish. Fun, but a few found it rough and thought better whites exist here.

Blind tasting: First nose, a fruit eau-de-vie, probably plum, surprising! But it dissipates quickly, a profile more oriented towards sugarcane, indulgence, freshness, slight traces of anise, menthol, and small salty notes. It quickly reminds me of the recent tasting of Chantal Compte "Fighting Spirit," and the indulgence/freshness points me towards pure cane juices from Mauritius. On the palate, cane, citrus, lime, no doubt, it's a pure juice, probably agricole. Even if this indulgence and the impression of mentholated freshness are a bit out of the ordinary for Martinique, why not? The proof is moderate, probably 52° (I'm quite bad at this kind of guessing, my palate doesn't differentiate much between 50 and 60...). A finish with slight pepper, citrus, some floral notes, and at the bottom of the glass, a bit of pear. I like it a lot and stick to my first idea. My guess: Chantal Compte "Fighting Spirit Green Lagoon," Mauritius, which I imagine at 52°. *Drumroll* >>> Chantal Compte "Fighting Spirit Gold," Martinique, 50% NB: I understand the price might be off-putting, but when I see this rum rated 7.5/10, it's still surprising! Anyway, the Mauritius from the same series is even better ;)

My sample was not good, burning, dry, frankly unpleasant. Maybe to taste again, but I don't feel like it. Remarkable in pastry, after testing.

Awesome, Chantal Rum :-) but really a pretty good one. Nose is really very vegetal, olives etc. On the palate also vegetal and lots of fruit. Rum is really not bad, but there are better ones in this price category.

Distillerie du Simon 

Avg Rating 8.0/10 340 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.
