Neisson Le Vieux Par Neisson Agricole Rum 700ml, 45% ABV

This Rhum is a blend of carefully selected vintages which has been further matured for 3 - 9 years in both French Oak and used American Oak. This Rhum is using sourced sugar cane from Neisson's own forty hectare sugarcane farm planted in La Carbet which benefits from the towns mineral rich soils due to its proximity to Mount Pelée as well as high sunlight exposure and a good fluctuation of rain and temperature variation. The fresh sugar cane juice is then fermented for 72 (one of the longest fermentation times of the French Indies) and utilises natural yeasts.

Nose: Oaky Vanilla, dried druits, tropical notes with a touch of citrus.

Palate: Dry and maritime with hints of ginger and oaky tannins.

Finish: Lingering oaky tannins with ginger skin, dry grass and citrus pith.

Neisson

Neisson Distillery's exceptional rums are deeply influenced by the terroir of Martinique, a key element that sets it apart in the world of rum. The distillery's location near Mount Pelée means its sugarcane benefits from rich volcanic ash soil, high sunlight exposure, and the perfect balance of rain and temperature variations. This unique environment contributes to the sugarcane's quality, directly impacting the rum's flavor profile.

Fermentation at Neisson is a carefully controlled process, utilizing natural yeasts that accentuate the sugarcane's inherent flavours. Neisson's commitment to small-batch production and meticulous attention to every detail of fermentation and distillation processes ensures the spirit’s authenticity and unparalleled quality.
