Habitation du Simon A1710 La Perle 2020
People who already like white agricole and its raw, briny side will feel at home here. This unaged Martinique cane-juice rum leads with explosive fresh sugarcane, then citrus, salty iodine and a steady peck of pepper. A few tasters also catch olives, coriander and even truffle. At 54.5% it still sips cleanly, and it turns fierce in a daiquiri.
The community says- Explosive fresh cane
- Salty iodine notes
- Peppery heat

Aggregated from 29 community reviews.
Fresh, briny white agricole with real punch Loved by agricole fans for its punchy cane, iodine and pepper. Several drink it neat despite the strength; others say it truly shows off shaken into a daiquiri. Not one for sweet-rum drinkers.

Review by Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰
Considering the price tag this is a very nice rum. You get a lot for your money actually. The nose is fresh, well rounded and fruity with sugarcane and light floral and medicinal notes. The palate is fresh and well balanced with fruit and sugarcane trailed by pepper and a light medicinal note. Some may consider the palate spicy as well. The finish is medium to long, warm and fruity with sugarcane. Price to quality is extremely good.

Un très beau rhum 👌
Review by Benoit Mahe
Un rhum vraiment très original et plutôt réussi.
Review by Morgan Garet
Comme toujours les blancs de cette distillerie sont très bons. Canne fermentée, saumure, végétal mais gourmand à la fois avec de la truffe mêlée au sucre.
Review by Mc Pirate
Étrange odeur de gas oil à l’ouverture puis de truffe et à l’oxydation la banane ! Bouche puissance mais très sec avec une finale sur le fruit.
Review by N’ours
👃Nez : Un nez gourmand où la canne est explosive. Trés floral, on retrouve ensuite des notes iodées, des belles touches minérales et un peu terreuse. Enfin une pointe d’agrume vient sublimer le tout. ~ 👄Bouche : L’attaque est puissante et ronde. Tout le nez se retrouve dans le palais. La canne et l’iode sont très présentent, elles laissent place à une note fruité, puis minérale, le tout agrémenté en permanence d’une pointe de poivre. ~ ✨La finale : Chaude, poivré, puis on fini avec une canne longue et gourmande.
Review by cigares
A rum tasted at Rhum Fest in 2024. The nose is highly aromatic, with lots of fruit, citrus and herbaceous notes. The palate is marked by lemon and other citrus fruits, with a spiciness that is not very present on the nose. A very fine rum marked by its distinctive aromas.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
whacky. Green olives, fresh coriander, iodine, polish, and unripe strawberries on the nose. then in the taste salty, fruity, bitter, bacon & olives and then again strawberries and coriander and pineapple. actually reminds me of those pineberrys (a white strawberry cross that tastes like pineapple). pretty cool! in the finish everything repeats again with X types of pepper and overripe strawberry with cilantro and bacon. reminds me a bit of mexican cuisine 😅 in the daiquiri he then comes really fat and shows what Martinique can! 💪⚡
