Neisson VSOP (88 Years Limited Edition) 2015
Sipped neat, this is a young Martinique agricole that punches above its four years: young wood and pepper up front, floral and citrus notes underneath, a whisper of cane sweetness. Several tasters call it well-rounded and more mature than its age suggests. The recurring gripe is the 44% ABV — a couple wanted more grip and length in the finish.
The community says- Balanced and rounded
- Spicy, peppery cane
- ABV feels low

Young, spicy, floral agricole; some want more ABV Most find this a balanced, spice-driven Neisson that drinks older than four years. The split point is the ABV — a few wish it weren't cut so low, calling it "too watery."

I'm really amazed at how much flavour this one has looking at the relative young age. Fresh and fruity with spices and wood. A very wall balanced and rounded rum. Would have loved to try it at a higher ABV. Price to quality is very good.

Un rhum Neisson jeune, frais, floral. Je ne lui ai trouvé quasi aucune longueur. Profil pas assez boisé à mon goût.Un peu déçu de cette dégustation.
Review by Righrum
Another great neisson. Quite young but already well rounded and very intense despite low abv. On the nose young wood mixes with floral notes and some cappuccino too. When drinking the wood and spices are in first places, the flowers come out in the end before the pretty long aftertaste spices driven.
Review by French_Rhumeur
Nettement meilleur que la version LMDW. On retrouve les marqueurs Neisson en bouche avec ce côté épicé.

Vsop fort surprenant 4 ans mais fait penser au moins à 6 ans, très équilibré et complexe
Review by Rhum Mirror 🇧🇪
Neisson VSOP 2015 – 44% Sorti pour les 88 ans de la distillerie, uniquement disponible sur place, ce rhum a vieilli près de 5 ans (9/07/2015 → 16/04/2020) avant d’être embouteillé à 44% – soit 88 US proof, clin d’œil à l’anniversaire. Tirage limité à 1200 exemplaires. À ses côtés, une petite sœur commercialisée par LMDW, au vieillissement atypique : 4 mois en fût neuf (profil 105) 2 ans ½ en ex-Bourbon 2 ans ½ en ex-Cognac Un VSOP de haut niveau, parfaitement équilibré et représentatif du terroir martiniquais. On regrette simplement un léger manque de gourmandise et de longueur. Comme souvent avec Neisson, le prix reste élevé (un VSOP Saint James tournant à 30 €...), mais quand on aime... Et de toute façon, c’est déjà introuvable. 👉 Perso, j’ai préféré la version distillerie à celle de LMDW.

Too watery. Sad, they shouldn't have cut the alcohol that low.
