HSE Sherry Oloroso Finish 2004

"Sehr schön ausgewogen" is the recurring verdict — the sherry finish sits well without burying the agricole underneath. Expect grapey dried-fruit and nutty oxidative notes over a still-present cane spine, with brown sugar, spice and a light glue note. Dry and long for 45%, though a couple of tasters catch a bitter edge on the close.

The community says
  • Well-integrated sherry
  • Dry, long finish
  • But: Slight bitter finish

This is a other surprisingly good rum. Naturally sweet and I think even a beginner in the Agricole world woul like this one. A young rum that is pretty complex of its age, fruity with spices, yum. Price to quality is very good.

Small HSE tasting: Good sherry finish, still present agricole. For me round but nothing you'd need a bottle of. Spices are very pronounced as well as fruity grape notes paired with light caramel notes.

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.
