Extremely fruity nose topped with coffee with a slight tobacco, one could stay there for hours.In the mouth a rum still very very fruity, difficult to be more precise even if an impression of banana dominates. The wood is varnished very elegant.The finish is long and we stay on tropical fruits the wood and spices.I am a fan of this juice🔥

An exceptional rum with a gourmand and fruity nose. On the palate, the strength is perfect, with gourmandise and complexity omnipresent. A delight!

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.
