Rum Agricole · 40%

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
  • Keep in mind: Thin body

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.

7.5/10

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

Floral and lemony nose. Clearly more expressive and vesou-typical than the Trois Rivières blanc, same alcohol level, same price range tasted before. Also fattier. Palate in the same vein. Light. I'd say I prefer it over Trois Rivières. Goes down easily as ti punch. Nice bottle too 😅

Small agricole rum not very expressive but nice in ti-punch or to lengthen a mai-tai.
