Neisson L'Esprit Bio 70° echoes the brand's iconic reference: the famous brut de colonne L'Esprit de Neisson. After a 66% version, the distillery returns to the 70% that made its legend. Respect for the terroir is pushed to the limit. After lengthy research and hard work, the distillery is finally able to offer this organic rum. Zikak, cinnamon and red cane juices were distilled in the superb Neisson column. The rum was bottled without reduction, after resting and stirring.
Nico's tasting notes
The nose of this rum is extremely impressive in its naturalness. The cane is intensely present, soft and sweet, yet vibrant. Beyond its herbaceous side, there are fruity (lime) and spicy (white pepper) nuances.
With aeration, we find a typically Martinique profile, with pepper, freshness, and a rum that's full of drive. The cane is ever more concentrated, ever richer, a veritable perfume. At last, we manage to hit some fermented, slightly iodized notes (pickles), and resinous aromatics like rosemary.
The mouth is the height of the nose, and even more so. What a slap! An immense wave of cane invades the palate, lining every nook and cranny. It's not us biting the cane, it's the cane biting and embracing us. The flavors are intense, earthy and vegetal, with cane that is sometimes ripe and candied, sometimes dry and peppery.
The finish leaves us with an oily rum that never leaves the tongue, and continues to release candied lime flavors.
"Neisson has created a new monument, which for my part still far surpasses the classic, historical version..."
