Aroma visualization from community tastings
Habitation du Simon A1710 Tricentenaire 2016
Orange peel and vanilla lead here, with cinnamon, mango and a roasted-wood edge over a light floral note several tasters picked up. It's a column-still Martinique agricole that drinks gentle for its blend of older rums. Most find it pleasant and fruity but a touch short and less complex than they'd hoped from this house — a quiet elegance rather than fireworks.
The community says- Orange and vanilla
- Light floral note
- Short finish

Elegant, fruity agricole that plays it quiet Fruity, spiced and easy-drinking, with orange, vanilla and roasted oak. Well made, but several felt it lacked the complexity and depth they expected from this distillery.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Nice tasting yesterday of rums I rarely meet in tastings. This one is lovely and fruity with spices and roasted wood to it. There is a light floral note that I like a lot. Price to quality is OK.
Review by Mc Pirate
Appreciating the house's white rums enormously, I thought I'd discovered a "pearl" when I spent €250 on an aged rum! What a disappointment, it's not particularly flawed, but at this price, or even two or three times less, there's better (Depaz 2002 at €70).
Review by Jakob
In der Nase verschlossener als der Soleil De Minuit und der Nuée Ardente. Geschmacklich etwas schärfer als die beiden trotz des geringen Alkoholgehalts.
Review by BnBrt
Un bon rhum mais qui manque un peu de complexité par rapport à mes attentes (élevées :)) compte tenu de cette distillerie Nez très discret, un peu gourmand. Attaque assez franche, des notes d'oranges, un peu d'amertume du zeste. Une rondeur de la vanille et un oeuf e bois du fût. Finale un peu courte
Review by JB
Lightweight and very pleasant, although I expected more.
