Neisson Réserve Spéciale
Expecting bright, grassy agricole? This one leans the other way. The Limousin oak does a lot of the talking here — oak, cigar and dark chocolate up front, with the cane's vegetal side more buried than you'd think. One taster called it his first aged agricole and needed time with it. Finishes a little bitter, but the kind that pulls you back for another sip.

How does Neisson Réserve Spéciale taste?
Aggregated from 19 community reviews.
Balanced, oak-driven aged agricole, faintly bitter finish Well-balanced, wood-forward aged Martinique agricole that most find harmonious but a touch short on complexity. A slightly bitter finish and buried grassiness split opinion.

Review by Aaron Adams
My first aged Rhum agricole and I'll definitely need to spend a bit more time with this one. Got way more barrel influence than I was expecting which came across as oak and cigar notes. There is definitely the grassy vegetal notes I associate with cane juice but it's more buried than I expected. Not finding as much fruit as some other have reported. Finishes a little bitter but in a way that makes me want another sip. Cheers!
Review by Insta: spiritofbernard 🇫🇷
A pleasant old Neisson, but bitter on the finish. The woody agricultural notes are well present, but it lacks a little complexity to reach the 8/10 mark.a good digestive for lovers of Martinique woodiness.
Review by jonathan.p🇫🇷
A small neisson without much character but the whole remains well balanced. One finds there the standards of neisson nevertheless.
