In the heart of the rum tradition of the French Antilles, the HSE (Habitation Saint-Etienne) Très Vieux VSOP Port Cask Finish represents a refined and complex expression of agricultural rum. Distilled from pure sugarcane, this rum is initially aged in American oak barrels under the warm Caribbean sun before being finished in barrels previously used for Porto wine. This particular finish endows it with an extraordinary aromatic complexity and a unique taste that envelops the palate.

The color of the HSE Très Vieux VSOP is deeply golden, with amber reflections that promise the richness of its bouquet. On the nose, immediate notes of ripe fruit, such as plums and figs, are enhanced by a subtle hint of vanilla and chocolate, due to the maturation in oak barrels. The addition of the Porto barrels intensifies these sensations, introducing nuances of sweet spices and a hint of toasted oak.

On the palate, the rum is soft and enveloping, with a balanced sweetness that contrasts with a slight astringency. The flavors of dried fruit, caramel, and a mild spiciness of black pepper blend into a long and lingering finish, leaving memories of tobacco and leather, testifying to its excellence and the mastery of its maturation.

Presented in an elegant boxed packaging, the HSE Très Vieux VSOP Port Cask Finish is a true gem for lovers of sophisticated and high-quality rum. Ideal as a digestif or to be savored slowly on special occasions, this rum offers a true sensory experience, allowing one to mentally travel to the beautiful islands of Martinique.
