Aroma visualization from community tastings
HSE Blanc
Fresh sugarcane, lemon and a little white pepper, with a soft grassy sweetness and an oily texture that comes through in ti'punch. This Martinique agricole blanc is light and easy rather than loud — several tasters found it "pas très expressif" but genuinely pleasant. At 40% it's mild for the style, which is exactly why beginners and cocktail hands reach for it.
The community says- Clean sugarcane and citrus
- Great in ti'punch
- But: Thin body

How does HSE Blanc taste?
Aggregated from 24 community reviews.
Light, grassy agricole for ti'punch Well-liked as an easy, balanced agricole for cocktails and ti'punch. The honest catch: light body and low ABV mean it lacks punch if you want intensity neat.

Review by Stefan Persson
Bought this rum in Costa del Sol, Spain for use in Ti’Punch. This AOC Agricole is produced at the Simon distillery in Martinique in their creole column. The nose is sweet and oily with scents of sugarcane, lemon and white pepper. The palate is in line with the nose with increased flavors compared to the scents. The finish is medium long. Overall a too thin rum with too low ABV for my taste, but it works well in a Ti’Punch and probably also in other cocktails.
Review by Tano
Really great agricole rum for the price (15€ for a liter in Spain). Really smooth with well integrated flavours (sugarcane, citrus, grass and tropical fruits) and balanced sweetness. This makes it a perfect agricole rum for beginners. Works perfect for all kind of cocktails. The only thing that I missed is a bit more punch, that's why Im looking forward to try the 50°&55° versions. Anyways, can't complain

Nez floral et citronné. Clairement plus expressif et typé vesou que le trois rivières blanc même taux d'alcool même gamme de prix bu avant. Plus gras aussi. Bouche dans la même lignée. Légère. Je dirais qu'il a ma préférence par rapport au trois rivières. Passe tout seul en ti punch. Joli flacon aussi 😅

Petit rhum agricole pas très expressif mais sympathique en ti-punch ou pour allonger un mai-tai.

We had a go at several HSE today and I'm a bit tipsy from it.
