Velier Neisson Cuvée Chai 2 Vevert 2016
Grassy sugar cane, orange peel and a floral, almost lavender edge lead here, with vanilla, tropical fruit and a nutty, tobacco-tinged finish. This is one of three Neisson 2016 Chai casks bottled by Velier, and tasters keep comparing the trio. Some find it the freshest and most elegant, others the lightest and least tropical of the group. At 56.8% it drinks young, spicy and lively.

Fresh, floral agricole with grassy cane Well-liked agricole with a fresh, floral, citrus-and-cane profile. Several put it as the lightest of the three 2016 Chais; a few call it the best. Young and spicy with a short-to-long finish depending on who you ask.

Le Vevert est ds la gourmandise absolue! 💚
Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
A slightly older tasting. The price tag is pretty good compared to what you get. A fruity rum with a nice mix of spices and a nice floral note. The empty glass is really nice and I can pick up some ginger and chocolate.
Review by John Coffey
Belle maîtrise avec une longueur intéressante
Review by Oliver
Interesting citrus and coconut notes on the nose. On the palate comes tropical fruit and a great spice. Good, but not an extraordinary Neisson.
Review by Santo
Un profil plus boisé plus frais et floral que le chai Adrien. La finale est un peu plus persistante mais celui-ci me plaît moins.
Review by Joachim Guger
Eine sehr frische Nase - Zitrus, Lösungsmittel, Minze. Prickeln im Mund und Abgang. Nicht sehr komplex. Nicht schlecht, aber der schwächste der drei Chais. Die frische Nase macht ihn interessant.
Review by Leo Tomczak
Perfumed and very elegant. Light lavender flavor. Tastes great, but not tropical rum.
Review by Adrien B
Nez : fournil pâtissier, acidulé, agrume Bouche : très épicé, goûte jeune, attaque vive, finale courte Verre vide étonnant, floral, eau de rose
