Neisson Extra Vieux
Not the grassy, green agricole you might brace for — this aged Neisson leans mellow and rounded. Expect sugarcane, light wood and vanilla, with dark chocolate and coconut showing up on the palate for several tasters. One member found it "elegant and surprisingly balanced" for an agricole; a couple noted the alcohol needs a moment to settle and open up.

- Sugarcane and vanilla

#4996 24.12.2024 Enjoying an early Christmas sample. Nose Fresh, light, sweet, sugarcane, light wood, spice, light mineral, light raisin. Palate Fresh, balanced, sweet, sugarcane, light Agricole, light wood, grapes, faint salt, light honey, cinnamon. Finish Long, balanced, sweet, light wood, light roasted, faint salt, raisin, light lemon. The empty glass has light nutts caramel and anise. I'm always amazed at how balanced and complex rums they make and still manage to have a mellow expression that everybody could enjoy.

Mérite de s'ouvrir, alcool assez présent. Épicé et boisé marqué. (SJ ?) les fruits à coque arrivent ensuite.
Review by Timo Groeger
Einen netten Neisson haben wir hier. Fehlt etwas die Power, aber ansonsten sehr lecker. Der erste Schluck war eine heftigste Ladung Karamell, das hat sich mit der Zeit gelegt und es kamen Vanille und Holz zum Vorschein.
Review by TheJackDrop
Truly an exceptional vintage Maybe even better than the XO for me More mellow and less nutty. Tasted at my friend Max's, a return trip that was worth it, that's for sure! Top.

Nez sec et un poile alcooleux sur un joli boisé. Ok on en Martinique c’est clair. En bouche j’ai un gros chocolat noir aux noisettes c’est vraiment cool avec une deuxième bouche noix de coco. La finale est douce et moyennement longue. C’est très agréable. Un poile chère quand même

Expert review by The Fat Rum Pirate
Read full review →This Neisson offers a much more refined and more complex experience. If you are only really familiar with molasses based rums then this may still seem a little odd but it is worth persisting with. There is a definite progression between this and some of the other younger Agricole rhums...
