Neisson Profil 105 bio

Neisson is a small family distillery in Martinique, a long admired name in high proof cane juice rum, and Profil 105 is its organic expression, distilled from fresh pressed sugar cane and bottled unsweetened at a forthright 53.3%. The Profil series highlights specific cuts and casks, and this one keeps the fresh cane vibe while adding a little weight.

The nose is lively and vegetal, all sugar cane, citrus and a nutty edge, with a light, buttery wood note giving gentle depth. The palate stays bright and grassy, cane and vanilla over soft oak, before a vegetal, lightly spiced, cane led finish. The extra proof gives it punch without harshness. It is a versatile agricole, characterful enough to sip for those who enjoy expressive whites and lively enough to lift a boosted Ti' Punch, with the organic credentials a welcome bonus.
